My spam log files (not verbose) are filling-up with lines such as

Every arriving mail generates a couple of hundred of these as it runs 
through every test
Any ideas on how to stop this?

One or more of your rcfiles contains lines such as
        OB:
or
        O:

Those are not valid assignments or recipe start lines, so they have
no defined meaning.  Procmail is kindly warning you that your rcfile
contains something that is useless but probably wasn't meant to so.

It seems likely that those were meant to be recipe start lines (the
former with the 'B' flag set) and should therefore have been written as
        :0B
and
        :0

Note that a recipe start line must start with a colon and should have
a _zero_, not the letter 'o', after the colon.
