You must create it in the user's home directory.

Take a look at

Code:

man procmailex

to see some procmail examples.

You can find out a user's home directory by taking a look at /etc/passwd.

it did not work.

my passwd looks like:

vu7106:x:7106:7106:virtual-user:/var/www/chroot/virtual/exmaple.com:/bin/false

vu7106's home directory is /var/www/chroot/virtual/exmaple.com, so you must place the .procmailrc file there.
