I was trying to write a rule to match dollar signs ('$'), but
procmail always seemed to treat the $ character specially no

Is the dollar sign the first thing on the line? If not, \$ should work
just fine. Another thing you could try is [$].
(The pattern you developed excludes control characters and high-bit
characters such as ISO-8859 accented characters. Neither may be a
problem.)

(Both of the following work as expected here under Procmail 3.11pre4.
:0
* \$
/dev/null
:0
* [$]
/dev/null
If you still have problems, try posting the failing recipe and a log
experpt with VERBOSE logging turned on.)
