Richard,

 Kindly explain how not knowing procmail (or Unix for that matter)
relates to configuring BGP/OSPF/Cisco IOS/JunOS
(Yes I know JunOS is based on FreeBSD -
 but I doubt anyone runs an MTA or MUA on it ... ;-)

It's not a causal relationship, but more of an indirect one: those that tend
to have networking clue very frequently also possess UNIX clue. Which is what
I (and I suspect Richard) was driving at ...

[snip]
  Also don't even get me started on *security* consultants that are forced
(by corporate policy) to read Email on MS OutLook from an Exchange server :-(

The MUA someone may have to use has nothing to do with whether or not that
person possesses experience with UNIX and standard UNIX utilities.
