Why? Your security hat? I have not seen a single security update mentioned
in the changelog since its first entry from 2006. And I understand that
procmail would have a big potential on being a security nightmare...

I would miss it, that's why I am asking.

And I would volunteer to help maintaining it (might be a stupid idea,
since I have not ever looked at the code ;).
