I replaced procmail by maildrop:
https://gitlab.com/docker-scripts/postfix/-/commit/0351603cd55aae57f2fc82e3d13c7b18744f0b67

I am not sure if maildrop is better, but at least it seems to be still
maintained:
https://sourceforge.net/p/courier/mailman/courier-maildrop/?viewmonth=202102

Some useful pages that helped me to make the migration:
