I did what you suggested. It did attempt to read the .procmailrc in /root
Now it quickly responds with this message.
root@???
    Child process of procmail_pipe transport returned 77 (could mean permission denied) from command:
    /usr/bin/procmail


Am I missing something in my transport? Is there a magical security setting to not allow incoming "root"
emails?

*Transport*
procmail_pipe:
driver = pipe
command = /usr/bin/procmail -d $local_part
return_path_add
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
check_string = "From "
escape_string = ">From "
user = $local_part
group = mail
