Good idea. Using procmail? Good. Bypass smail alltogether with the mda keyword for purposes of testing. "mda procmail -d you" is probably sufficient. If that works, the problem is possibly smail. Now go write mail to you@localhost and sent that. If that works, smail is fine. Try fetchmail in verbose mode, it'll spit out lots of crap but it's useful for finding the problem.. The problem may even be procmail, remove ~/.procmailrc and see if mail is delivered then.
