Urgh, and as in debian this is set, procmail is per default unsave on
all systems where non UPG is used or where the user like to use his own
UPG for sharing purpose!?

To change all that software just to let the umask be convenient for just
one very special use case and make all the rest all that unsave? Sorry,
but this is like the openssl disaster just intentional.
