As do I...

The above *may* actually be a Cygwin procmail problem.  The following is
an excerpt form the Cygwin procmail README:

    3. Extremely occasionally, Cygwin procmail will leave a stray .lock
    file around which can cause a misfiling of mail messages.  I am
    attempting to track down the root cause of this problem.  Any help
    would be greatly appreciated.

I have the above problem but only on the order of once every month or
two.  So, if you are experiencing this at much higher rate, then you may
have uncovered a different problem.

BTW, I am still using my own private build of mutt 1.4, configured as
follows:

    $ mutt -v

Note that my mutt build is configured for dotlocking.

I will give Gary's a whirl (hopefully) this coming week.
