8 From procmailrc:
9 If the mailbox is specified to be an MH folder or maildir folder,
10 procmail will create the necessary directories if they don't exist,
11 rather than treat the mail‐ box as a non-existent filename.

13 And I know said functionality works, because I deliver my list mail to
14 .ML.${LISTNAME}.${YYYY}-${MM}/

16 P.S. That level of crossposting is not nice. Everybody who is only on
17 one of those lists would not be able to cross-post like you've done.
