I wish to test a global spam filter that resides in /etc/procmailrc
To test I want the filter in place, but I want ALL mail
delivered to the end user even if it matches the filter.

spamtrap.caught
Will this deliver the mail to the file called spamtrap.caught AND
deliver to end user also?
Yes.
Remember this is GLOBAL procmailrc not a per user .procmailrc
The fundamental behavior of /etc/procmailrc is the save as a user
$HOME/.procmailrc. The only differences I can think of are
a) the /etc/procmailrc runs with UID=0 (but look for DROPPRIVS in the
procmailrc(5) manpage)
b) $_ expands to "/etc/procmailrc" instead of "$HOME/.procmailrc",
but that should be obvious.

Clean air and water are both Good Things. What real question is what
we're willing to do and give up in quest of them. I think practically
everyone would agree that killing a person just because he or she drives
a smelly/inefficient car is Too Much. Turning off all the computers in
the world would eliminate a huge amount of pollution from electricity
generation, in the short term, but would kill our chances of developing
cleaner forms of production, not to mention eliminating *many* jobs and
lowering the "quality of life" of a lot of people. The question isn't
whether the ends are good, but what means we'll use to get there.
