Does the .procmailrc complete before moving on to the INCLUDES or the
INCLUDES executed where they are placed?

Procmail is linear, and INCLUDRC essentially embeds the contents of the 
specified file as if it were at that location in the original rc file.

The exception is that a SWITCHRC (which is similar, but distinctly 
different from INCLUDERC) can terminate execution of the currently included 
rcfile if you unset it.  Useful for exiting an included rcfile early 
because some logic at the top indicates the entire file is non-applicable 
to the current message.
