My MTA is Qmail and until now, I have been using maildrop as my MDA.
I have upgraded to a newer version of maildrop. After the upgrade, one
particular user account gives me the following messages.

-------------
(0)localuser@caesar:~ => fetchmail -a -K -l 90000 -w 500 -t 60
./usr/local/bin/maildrop: Unable to open mailbox.
....../usr/local/bin/maildrop: Unable to open mailbox.
../usr/local/bin/maildrop: Unable to open mailbox.
..(0)localuser@caesar:~ => /usr/local/bin/maildrop: Unable to open mailbox.

After compiling with dot-lock feature, I get this error.

-------------
(0)localuser@caesar:~ => fetchmail -a -K -l 90000 -w 500 -t 60
./usr/local/bin/maildrop: Unable to create a dot-lock.
....../usr/local/bin/maildrop: Unable to create a dot-lock.

Debbuging is not logging any information in maildrop log file.

After weeks of trying to get this to work, now I am ready to switch
to procmail. I have heard of patchs that need to be applied to procmail
to let it work with the Maildir system. Is this an easy patch to apply and
is it widely used over maildrop?

Thanks for any input.
