Now I'm got a large spool file in my /var/spool/mail mailbox, and
I'd like to re-filter it, but can't exactly figure out how...

I tried doing "cat file |exec /usr/bin/procmail" (as the owner of the 
file), but procmail didn't process all 200-some messages contained in the 
file, only the 1st message...

formail -s procmail < mailbox

Any help appreciated.

HTH--I've had to do this in the past myself (though I must admit never
because of setting my home dir to 777...)
