Maildir works. After changing local_delivery to
directory = ${home}/Maildir/
mail does get delivered to the root of my Maildir folder when the
.forward file is removed. I suppose I could work around this by skipping
the exim .forward stuff and just invoking procmail from .forward, but I
was kind of waiting to get into procmail until I'd converted to maildirs.
Currently I'm not using procmail.

Thanks very much. One thing I note is that the two people who provided
me with examples of a local_delivery: routine gave me almost identical
examples. This leads me to think that there's a doc about Maildir & exim
that I haven't found. So far I've been working from the comments in
exim.conf and the material in /usr/doc/exim/
My next plan is to closely compare my exim.conf file to yours. Thanks
very much for sending it.
