You are quite hilarious.

I did not suggest depreciation of procmail, so I'm unsure why you keep
asserting that.

Why don't you count the number of ports I've actually 'butchered'? The
cvs-ports list is public and easy to search. You're asserting that I've
turned up and suddenly started to destroy the tree, which is anything but
true, and I find it quite pathetic. Perhaps you need to take a break-- I'm
rather tired of being called to defend myself, I've plenty of better things
to be doing.
