Hello.  I've spent several hours trying to get

is there something special for sendmail that

I've added a .forward:

You don't need this. RedHat is configured to use procmail out-of-the box
in sendmail.cf, I believe.

And a .procmailrc:

Here are my permissoins:
...
-rwxr-xr-x   1 cce  cce   20 Jul  8 14:43 .forward
-rwxr-xr-x   1 cce  cce  108 Jul  8 14:41 .procmailrc

The permissions on your .procmailrc file should be -rw-------

Check your maillog. I bet it is reporting that that is what your problem
is.
