I think the spool is just like any other file for Procmail.  If
you're using the .forward, sendmail is not touching the spool, so
you can get Procmail to write it.  Something like the following:

:0:
* conditions to determine which mail you want to read from home
/usr/spool/mail/degennar 

If you want to execute other actions:

# No need for lockfiles in compound recipes
:0
* conditions to determine which mail you want to read from home
{
# The c option means that procmail will continue processing
:0 c:
/usr/spool/mail/degennar 

:0
Other actions here
}
