Maybe it's a procmail permissions error. How do you have procmail 
setup, as the LDA or invoked through .forward. The .forward 
and .procmailrc MUST be only writeable by the user, it cannot be group 
writeable unless you have configured it to do so. I don't and also, I 
set spool directories as /home/spool/mail/<user>. And you 
have "/home/sites/site23/../../spool/mail/xyz, is this a spool 
directory off the site or users directory, very odd. I would take a 
look at your procmail file for this user.
