We'll be in for the usual "but it works for me" screaming of the irresponsible people who don't care (and most of them won't know that they need to write the exception/error handling themselves in their .procmailrc recipes). Sunpoet, can we mark the port as deprecated given that even the upstream once said it should best be abolished? I can't find the reference now, the procmail.org website displays "Site hosting in transit, information will be back up shortly."
