If you like procmail, and don't want to patch it, then I recommend
safecat. You can download it at my web page:
<http://www.pobox.com/~lbudney/linux/software/safecat.html>.
Safecat takes stdin and writes it to a file in a Maildir, using the
same algorithm as qmail. You can invoke it from procmail (patched or
not) with a rule like:
:0w
|safecat $HOME/Maildir/tmp $HOME/Maildir/new
With the 'w' flag, above, procmail+safecat should be as reliable as
qmail itself.
