Warren,

Thanks for the pointer to another of your excellent short tutorials.

I note that you discuss sendmail's /etc/mail/hostname.mc
file and how to reset local_procmail.  First, there is 
movement afoot to remove sendmail from FreeBSD and replace
it with dma(1).  Second, a number of people probably do as
I do, and invoke procmail from a .forward file.

%  cat ~/.forward
"|exec /usr/local/bin/procmail -f-"

Do you know if maildrop can be used in a similar way?  I
suppose I have some reading to do.
