maybe you could use something like
:0
* ^FROM or ^TO statement
{
:0 fbw
|sed -e '/\+OK.*[0-9]*.*octests/d'
:0:
some_folder
}
This way it uses sed -e as a filter which deletes any +OK nnnn octests from
the email

end. Manually deleting the +OK string make Balsa happy, but: 1) I can't
figure out why procmail is appending this string to my inbound messages;
Procmail isn't. Unless you have a recipe doing it.
This is a POP thing - and if you're seeing it in the messages at procmail,
then chances are you're fetching mail with a utility such as fetchmail,
which despite the "mail" suffix, isn't related to procmail in any way.
2) I can't figure out any way to eliminate this string from these
messsages automatically;
Fix your POP retrieval. I've had fetchmail set up on some ancillary
accounts for several years, and I've never seen this behaviour.
and 3) manually deleting is not practical when I receive several
hundred messages per day.
Fix your POP retrieval.
