is rumored to have said:

Bill Cole:
If your mailstore uses mbox or Maildir, the unmaintained antique software named "procmail" could be used for delivery. As an antique myself, I use it, but I cannot in good conscience recommend anyone else adopt it de novo.

It looks like procmail is maintained again, by the original author even
(with interesting background on the procmail code, too):

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1006633#24

I rescind my warning. That is very good news, as there is nothing that quite replaces it. Translating my personal .procmailrc to Sieve has been on my 'to do' list for longer than I've used SpamAssassin. Also very good news there from the author that he has integrated most of the Debian patches and fixed all of the bug backlog.
