As I think I mentioned in the December thread, procmail doesn't add any additional 
headers that a standard MTA would.  For example there is no "Date" header.

To add headers you can always use formail.  Not sure what exactly mutt is 
looking for...  But try this....

cat d1.letter | formail -a "Date: `date`" | procmail -f cron

The following seems to work:

# cat /etc/sysconfig/crond
# Settings for the CRON daemon.
# CRONDARGS= :  any extra command-line startup arguments for crond
CRONDARGS=-m "/usr/bin/procmail -f cron"

This produced a valid mailbox. At least so far. We will see what happens tonight after a couple cron jobs...
