You can kill logging more efficiently by

(1) unsetting LOGFILE; or
(2) not defining LOGFILE in the first place, since it is unset by default.

Remove that third line and change the comment on the second line to this:

  # Comment out above line to prevent logging; uncomment to re-enable.

On rare occasions during a user's absence you may want to log a single
interactive call to procmail; you can then define LOGFILE on the command
line and get logging for just that one invocation.
