In most distro, Procmail does not support large file by default,
If your mailbox file larger then 2G, you may see maillog like
(can't create user output file. Command output: procmail: Couldn't create "/var/spool/mail/user" )
You have to recompile Procmail using
make CFLAGS='-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE'
then Procmail can handle mailbox file larger then 2G.
