I take it, ``Folder:   :0:'' means that after encountering the invalid
regular expression procmail found the default mailbox locked, and therefore
did not deliver the mail anywhere. I also hope this means the mail bounced.

No, it means that Procmail's parser got out of sync and created a file
in your MAILDIR called :0: (yes, this is a valid filename under Unix).
