Ugh. procmail is disgusting. Consider maildrop instead (part of the courier mail server suite: http://www.courier-mta.org/maildrop/ )

Procmail exemplifies the leanness, speed, and precision that all Unix utilities should strive for.

That said, I've never used maildrop, being quite smitten with procmail myself. But since the size of maildrop's source distribution is ten times that of procmail, I'll stick with the latter out of principle.
