Nein, sie kennen beide MDAs.

Ja.

| and not a pipe, a temporary file will not be necessary.

| maildrop checks the mail delivery instruction syntax from the filter
| file, before attempting to deliver a message. Unlike procmail, if the
| filter file contains syntax errors, maildrop terminates without
| delivering the message. The user can fix the typo without causing any
| mail to be lost.

Nein. Gerade procmail ist dafür bekannt, dass es gerne mal Mails
verschwinden lässt oder an falschen Stellen ablegt.

Kannst Du das auch mit Fakten untermauern oder faselst Du nur?
