Probably an issue with the path, or shell.
it's something like
procmail -m /path/to/test.rc < message.txt
Looks fine to me.
When testing, I invoke against a pile of messages:
formail -s procmail -m testing.rc < messages.mbx
Or, actually (since I gzip archives of messages - such as spam):
gzip -d -c messages.gz | formail -s procmail -m testing.rc
Does your test.rc set up a procmail environment?
I have a testing.rc "wrapper" that sets up a test environment (LOGFILE and
DEFAULT to different paths than my actual mail for instance), then
INCLUDERCs my actual test filter.
