I need to send an email to root@??? and have Exim
run this delivery ass root and execute the command /usr/bin/procmail as
root. I am getting this error message when I try to send it to root.
Root's .procmailrc file is perfectly in tact and has worked in the past
under other MTUs.

The following text was generated during the delivery attempt:

------ pipe to |/usr/bin/procmail
       generated by root@??? ------


procmail: Suspicious rcfile "/root/.procmailrc"
procmail: Couldn't read "/root/.procmailrc"


My transport looks like this:

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

My director is:

procmail:
driver = localuser
transport = procmail_pipe

I have "#never_users = root" commented out in /usr/exim/configure
