Thanks very much for the advice.
I've tried something like that, but in the end of .procmailrc file I've 
piped the "regular" messages to vdelivermail, instead
of delivering them directly (stupid, wasn't it :-)). I'm sure that it 
would work even that way, if I used -p option and 
correct paths in .procmailrc file.
Anyway, I've read in the net that there is some incompatibility of exit 
codes between procmail and qmail.
Since I was not sure if that's fixed, had no time to dig into the 
documentation and I was working
on production system, decided to use maildrop, which did the job nicely.
But I'm still curious if that incompatibility is fixed ...
