 Anything else will be taken as a mailbox name (either a filename or a
       directory, absolute or relative to the current directory (see
       MAILDIR)).  If it is a (possibly yet nonexistent) filename, the
       mail will be appended to it.

       If it is a directory, the mail will be delivered to a newly
       created, guaran- teed to be unique file named $MSGPREFIX* in the
       specified directory.  If the mailbox name ends in "/.", then this
       directory is presumed to be an MH folder; i.e., procmail will use
       the next number it finds available.  If the mailbox name ends in
       "/", then this directory is presumed to be a maildir folder; i.e.,
       procmail will deliver the message to a file in a subdirectory named
       "tmp" and rename it to be inside a subdirectory named "new".

"hidden" might be an exaggeration :-)
