Take a look at your MTA (Exim, Postfix) configuration to see what's happening.
I couldn't figure out what was happening by looking at the Exim4 configuration files. I ran
dpkg-reconfigure exim4 and that seems to have fixed the problem.
Maybe you forgot to install and configure procmail?
I have never used Procmail. Thanks for your reply, Paul
