CPU & Memory sendmail + procmail + spamassassin

Hello, I'm triying to install senmail + procmail + spamassassin, but i've been having trouble with the first part, i cant install procmail...

im using solaris 9, i have already installed sendmail, then i tried to install procmail and everything goes right, , then edit the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file
replacing...

MLocal, P=/usr/local/bin/procmail, F=lsDFMAw5:/|@qmn, S=10/30,
R=20/40, T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix,
A=procmail -a $h -d $u

(i got that from google, it was the only config related stuff i found, apparently it's so easy to install that no one ever had any trouble with it... except me Smilie )

then i restart sendmail... and nothing... i check the procese with 'ps -ef | grep procmail' and i dont see it, am i supossed to see it?, did i missed a step?

i have tried with everything i found on google, and nothing , the INSTALL file only says type 'make install'... and that's it. any idea of what i'm doing wrong?

thanks

Tony.
