Integrating TMDA really isn't that hard a question or problem.
Given the effective UID etc problem, I can believe. If I hadn't already known how easy it would be to use Exim I might have given up as well (or hand-patched procmail to do what I wanted ala /etc/procmailrcs).

I'm afraid I do all sorts of things with procmail.
$ wc -l .~/procmailrc ~/Mail/*.procmail | tail -1 1215 total
What user is the filter process executed as by default? nobody.nogroup.
How about adding `mailman' to nobody's supplemental groups list so it can read ~mailman's files?
Many other services and processes execute in nobody.nogroup as a known-safe near jail. I'm very unwilling to alter my security stance by extending the permission set of nobody.nogroup, especially when all those email addresses are within the risk set.

Hey gang,
I need to remove a "Delivered-To:" header within a .procmailrc file. Any pointers?
