This is my .procmailrc file:

SHELL=/bin/sh    # for other shells, this might need adjustment
LOGNAME=~ircd/procmail.log
SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail

Um, LOGNAME is supposed to be your username.  I think you mean to set
LOGFILE.  Furthermore, procmail doesn't support tilde expansion, so
you'll need to expand ~ircd yourself.

Also, do you really need to set SENDMAIL?  What's wrong with the
compiled in value?


0 Whc: vacation.lock

Here's you biggest problem: you're missing the colon before the zero.
That'll take care of all the "Skipped" errors.

Everything else looks fine, though I would suggest indenting the
multi-line action to make it more readable:

:0 ehc         # if the name was not in the cache
| (formail -rI"Precedence: junk" \
           -I"Subject: Out of office" \
           -A"X-Loop: ircd(_at_)reaper(_dot_)org" \
   echo "I am currently out of town on vacation until 2nd May, after which"; \
   echo "time I will respond to your e-mail.  I can be contacted on 082 
xxxxxxx"; \ 
   echo "should you need to reach me urgently."; \
   echo "Thank you."; \
  ) | $SENDMAIL -oi -t
