This is ok afaik:

[res(_at_)server res]$ ls -la .procmailrc
-rw-rw-r--    1 res      res           149 Sep  2 17:04 .procmailrc
Is that OK? The manpage says:

The $HOME/.procmailrc file has the additional constraint of *not being group-writable or in a group-writable directory*. Also, mustn't overlook the permissions home directory itself.

I realize you're using "individual user group ids" (whatever the terminology is) but I believe that restriction still holds true. In any case, mine are 0600 and work:

[mailings(_at_)server: ~]$ ls -la .procmailrc
-rw-------  1 mailings mailings 7.7K Sep  2 22:41 .procmailrc

[mailings(_at_)server: ~]$ ls -ld /home/mailings
drwxr-xr-x  12 mailings mailings 4.0K Sep  3 10:57 /home/mailings

In any case, if ~/.procmailrc seems to be skipped completely, I'd certainly check permissions.
