it depends
pycmail just expects the incoming mail at stdin, and copies it to
various destinations, so under standard scheme it is invoked with
UID of the user expecting mail, and if it has proper rights to write it
into destination mailboxes, all should work.
(what kind of problems are you having with procmail?)
