You want procmail to return $EXITCODE to sendmail, but your .forward
file entry is setup to have the shell catch the non-zero status code
and just return 75.  Solution: remove the "|| exit 75" part of the
.forward entry.  You only really need that if your procmail binary
is on a NFS mounted filesystem.
