A) fetchmail with "direct procmail" can deliver to Maildir *without*
bothering sendmail.

B) *IF* you procmail script uses sendmail to send messages in response to
procesessed message and sendmail should not use DNS *THEN*

B1) add the following lines to sendmail.mc and generate/compile new sendmail.cf

dnl Do not check envelope sender address via DNS
FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl
dnl Do not canonify email addresses (the process requires DNS lookups)
FEATURE(`nocanonify')dnl

B2) add the following lines to submit.mc and generate/compile new submit.cf

define(`confDIRECT_SUBMISSION_MODIFIERS',`C')dnl

C) Do you need (slackware specific) instructions how to generate
sendmail.cf and submit.cf?
