It's simpler than that. You put the destination maildir just
like a mailbox, but with a slash at the end.

This is a small snippet from my .procmailrc:
----------------------
MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir/
DEFAULT=${MAILDIR}
LOGFILE=$HOME/logs/procmail
# where to send spam
SPAM=$HOME/Maildir/SPAM/
#Processing of mailing lists
:0:
* ^Sender: owner-\/[^(_at_)]+
lists/$MATCH/
-----------------------


And it goes along nicely. If i subscribe to a new mailing list
and it gets processed as such, and it finds that the maildir
to deliver it doesn't exist, it creates it, and delivers the
corresponding mail (with a "lock failure" error on the locks,
but that's fine :) )
