You can put
FEATURE(local_procmail)dnl
in your sendmail.mc file to generate your sendmail.cf config file. This
defines procmail as your local mailer agent.
Then you put
:0
/USER.MAIL.DIRECTORY/
in /etc/procmailrc. The trailing '/' tells procmail to use MAILDIR (man
procmailrc). Your mail directory can be /var/mail/username/ or
$HOME/maildir/
You can also just specify
DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/
in your /etc/procmailrc. This sets the default mail destination to be
the Maildir directory in the recipient's home directory in maildir format.
