write(2).  but i needed email badly and dropped procmail until i regain
the special nerve for it.

you don't *have* to do this, unless you wants to create maildirs per
default.  i had a working outfit with an incoming maildir and mailboxes
for safekeeping.

until i configured the exact same stuff for my new machine using
brandnew versions of the software.  but i did not have to be admitted to
the looney bin, because they were so understanding...
