I use procmail as a major component of my largest server, and it 
usually works well. I like it's syntax for specifying rules (it makes 
a lot of sense to me). HOWEVER, procmail has several major problems 
that make it unreliable (most notably, it can get in situations where 
it will fail to deliver mail but will report success, and thus mail 
will disappear), and if I was starting over today, I'd probably learn 
maildrop. Maildrop's syntax is more verbose, and a bit strange to 
anyone coming from procmail, but if only because it's more reliable, 
I'd recommend it instead of procmail (even though I haven't used it 
extensively).
