hummm, I think the MDA (procmail) need to be exec as root. maybe in your /etc/postfix/main.cf you have set "default_privs = nobody" and nobody have not privileges to drive procmail. Let "default_privs = nobody" , this is recommended, BUT try procmail run with major privileges. Just setuid procmail. chmod a+s /usr/bin/procmail and try now !
To be honest I haven't any experiencie with postfix, Justly and I'm searching out abou it and qmail to compare and select one to replace sendmail. any suggesting ? P.S excuse my bad cuban-english Lic.
