Normally you tell procmail the condition when to file the message,

   THIS MESSAGE I WANT TO READ??

Explicitly deliver it.

:0
* condition
$DEFAULT  # or any other place you want it

That assumes you don't override DEFAULT in any rc files. procmail -v
will tell you what procmail knows to be your system mailbox.

From man (5) procmailrc:

There are two kinds of recipes: delivering and  non-deliv­
ering  recipes.  If a delivering recipe is found to match,
procmail considers the mail (you guessed it) delivered and
will cease processing the rcfile after having successfully
executed the action line of the recipe.
