OK, starting to get somewhere here. Setting QMAILHOST has stopped my
outgoing messages from bouncing. That now works.
With /var/qmail/rc containing the stock procmail usage rc file:
#!/bin/sh
# Using splogger to send the log through syslog.
# Using procmail to deliver messages to /var/spool/mail/$USER by default.
exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
qmail-start '|preline procmail' splogger qmail&
Local delivery still does not work as I expected. Logged in as reader
and calling:
echo to: reader | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject
Dutifully delivers a message to ~/Mailbox
However, if I su -l to root, get roots env, and then call:
echo to: reader | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject
The message is *not* dutifully delivered although the log messages look
as if it has been.

Further, eventhough I've symlinked `binmail' to the
/var/qmail/bin/sendmail binary. And symlinked ~/Mailbox to the normal
FreeBSD delivery inbox /var/mail/reader.
cat .bashrc|mail -s TEST reader
No message appears in /home/reader/Mailbox
Although log messages look as if it has been delivered:

This is starting to seem like too much heaving and hawing for something
as basic as local delivery to work. What is the trick I'm missing?
