There are several.
First, if you have cron privileges on the machine, you could set up crontab
jobs to touch a zero-size file at 4 PM and to remove it at 9 AM on workdays;
then your procmail recipe could include a condition like this:
* ? test -f thatfile
[...]
I think thet Reidar wants to replay to _ALL_ the messages, but,
doing the job in specific time in the day (not in the rush hours).
