Zeke,
First off, never assume things, the command (in a terminal):
$ whereis procmail
Will give you:
procmail: /usr/bin/procmail /usr/share/man/man1/procmail.1.bz2
That way, you will know you have procmail.
Your question prompts me to ask a few questions of you.
1. Is spamassassin in your path?
2. Do your email headers show the spamassin-generated headers?
3. If so, have there been any emails with the requisite number of "*"?
4. Can you post some of your procmail log?
5. Did you first try spamassassin with its standard entries in .procmailrc
as shown it spamassassin's documentation, and if so did it work, then?
