Would I just make it?

Yep.  Do note the following, quoted from the procmail(1) manpage:

     Beware when using the -t option, if procmail  repeatedly  is
     unable  to  deliver  the  mail  (e.g.  due  to  an incorrect
     rcfile), the system mailqueue could fill up.  This could ag-
     gravate both the local postmaster and other users.

You know what though. If my system doesn't have enough room to allow my
mail to be delivered (I'm talking about hard-disk space; we don't have
quotas on my system) then I should be the one mad. If the hard-disk
doesn't fill up then it won't be a problem writing to the disk and thus,
the mailqueue won't fill up.  :)

And in regards to a rcfile being incorrect, it should just deliver to my
inbox if nothing else.
