  You notice your four-line-per-message logfile has grown to
  over ten megs.

Sigh, if only I had the quota ...

  You break your rc file up into several smaller ones just
  because its size was unwieldy.

(Actually there would be several other good reasons to do this.)

  You are archiving the procmail list for future reference.

Your favorite list contributors have their own inboxes. :-)

  "procmail -m proc-newsrc" is now your newsreader's default
  article saver.

Generalization: You replace your old shell and Perl scripts with
better solutions in Procmail.
