Procmail exception

[Kapil Khanna <boomkap usa net>]

This is what i am seeing in the /var/log/maillog
Feb 28 04:01:04 localhost procmail[6519]: Error while writing to
"/root/.procmail/log"
Has anybody seen this before?
What surprises me is that there is no directory called .procmail under root.
There can be a .procmail file in user specific directories to override default
behavior. However thats a file and not a directory. What is procmail confused
about and what i am doing wrong?
Thanks,
