Questions I would ask **myself** if I encontered the same issue:
Is procmail functioning at all on the RAQ4?? Is it just the autoresponder
that is broken, or is procmail just not doing its thing at all?
What is your logfile saying??? (you *are* running in verbose mode for
debugging purposes right?)
What's in the user's .forward file? Is procmail being called correctly,
and with an appropriate exitcode?
Can you invoke procmail from the command line?
What are the permissions on the .procmailrc?
Is there anything else in the .procmailrc?
Are you using a .procmailrc with INCLUDERC=some.rc's or is it monolithic?
(i.e. one file holding all recipe's)
Does an /etc/procmailrc exist?
Is procmail the LDA?
Are the paths called by procmail the same on both systems? I would begin
there, (literally at the top of the file) and work down through syntax as
a second line of inquiry.
Let's get some detail and solve this. Post your autoresponder recipe as
well, IF tweaking paths and perms don't work. Remember, procmail is really
weird about it's permissions all over the map.
