Let's give it a try: change the second recipe to:

Thanks for your response.  After :0 b, isn't the body of 
the email on stdout (or stdin, depending on how you want to
look at it).  If that is true, after the the first `cat` it
is lost and the last `cat` would be expecting an input from
stdin.  Since procmail execution is not tied to any terminal,
that might cause an error/automatic EOF(?)

Am I missing something here?
