Maildir uses the directory ~/Maildir/ by default, so add the following
line to your postfix's main.cf:
home_mailbox = Maildir/
from now on, postfix will deliver to Maildir/ in Maildir format
(because of the trailing slash, Maildir's "flag") by default.
however, since you are using procmail, you don't have to make that
site-wide, because you can simply postfix your mailboxes with a slash
to make them Maildirs. for instance, the following procmailrc will
deliver to Maildirs.
===
VERBOSE=no
LOGABSTRACT=yes
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/inbox/
:0
* ^Return-Path:.*debian-user.*@lists\.debian\.org
$MAILDIR/debian/
===
which will write all messages to debian user into the ~/Mail/debian/
Maildir (containing cur, tmp, and new), and everything else into
~/Mail/inbox/
and yes, Maildir is better by a factor of two thousand and one.
