[F8] procmailrc bug?

I noticed that my mail stopped working, and checked out
the /var/log/maillog and it reported that procmail was unable
to write to the user's mail directory.  The specific error was:
 
Error while writing to: "/$HOME/Mail/procmaillog"
 
I changed the procmailrc file so that the line:
 
MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail --> MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
LOGFILE=$HOME/Mail/procmaillog --> LOGFILE=$HOME/mail/procmail.log
 
Seems that instead of "Mail", it should be: "mail"
 
And everything started working again and no errors to the maillog file.
