I upgraded my Ingo the other day, and I can no longer write rules for  
filtering.  I am getting this error when I try to do so:

There was an error activating the script. The driver said: Unable to  
write VFS file ".procmailrc".

I figured that this was probably because the upgrade brought in new  
files that stomped on my old config files.  But I have done a diff on  
my backends.php, backends.local.php, conf.php and prefs.php (I have no  
prefs.local.php) -- And nothing has changed.

As you can guess, I have ingo set to use procmail.  All my horde apps  
are up to date as of today.  Ssh appears to be working normally on the  
server box.  $conf[storage] is SQL and $conf[storage] is Horde  
defaults.  Horde is configured so that $conf[vfs][type]=Files on the  
local system, and $conf[vfs]=/tmp.

I thank you for your help.

My backends.local.php:

/* Procmail Example */
$backends['procmail'] = array(
     'disabled' => false,
     'transport' => 'vfs',
     'hordeauth' => true,
     'params' => array(
         'hostspec' => 'localhost',
         'filename' => '.procmailrc',
          'vfstype' => 'ssh2',
          'port' => 22,
     ),
     'script' => 'procmail',

         'variables' => array(
         )
     ),
     'shares' => false
);

My backends.local.php is unaltered:
$prefGroups['script'] = array(
     'column' => _("Other Preferences"),
     'label' => _("Script Updating"),
     'desc' => _("Preferences about script updating."),
     'members' => array('auto_update'));
$_prefs['auto_update'] = array(

     'locked' => false,
     'type' => 'checkbox',
     'desc' => _("Automatically activate the script after each change?")
);
$_prefs['show_filter_msg'] = array(

     'locked' => false,
     'type' => 'implicit'

$_prefs['filter_seen'] = array(

$_prefs['rules'] = array(

     'locked' => false,
     'type' => 'implicit'

$_prefs['whitelist'] = array(
     'value' => 'a:0:{}',
     'locked' => false,
     'type' => 'implicit'

this is what I'm getting in the log file:

Another poster has posted the same issue on the ingo boards, though  
she was using mbox instead of maildir.
