I have yet to see a mail "without bogofilter's header lines" with
maildrop, but then again, the :0e rule should catch that. Only that I
don't know if there are other ways around. Procmail does a LOT of arcane
magic that one doesn't want in reliable mail systems.

I do recommend maildrop because a) its .mailfilter is much more
readable, b) it's much more reliablem, even in spite of c) it's slower
(factor 2 or 3 maybe).
