symlink of /home causes mail delivery failure

[Dr. Michael J. Chudobiak]

Hi all,

I tried to make my /home directory a symlink to something on a different 
disk (i.e., symlink across filesystems). It appeared to work fine when 
browsing directories, but mail delivery stopped!

I'm using Postfix, with procmail doing the local delivery.

Is there any reason that procmail (or anything else) would fail if /home 
is a symlink?
