My doubts is that How to tell “procmail “ to deliver the
mail to the users mail directory instead of root’s
mail directory

1. I have a feeling you are delivering to /var/spool/mail/root rather than to "/root/Maildir/" or whatever - that is the default behavior of sendmail


2. Use fetchmail in multidrop mode

poll pop.server.com with protocol pop3 no dns
user x with password xpass is localuser-x here
user y with password ypass is localuser-y here

etc etc.

3. If you really want to deliver to maildirs (that's a specific technical term by the way, meaning a directory of mails rather than a single file like /var/spool/mail/username - mbox, /home/username/Maildir/ for maildirs) - just add a /etc/procmailrc with the line -

DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/
