If you define a variable DUMMY="hello", you can write it later with LOG="${DUMMY}" to the log file. So you can test and see if the correct value is written to the log file.

 Alan, thanks for the reply.

 At the beginning of /etc/procmailrc, I define the LOG used by all
the recipes.  I guess the question is, how can I put that into an
included rc file without changing the global LOG?  Something like this
perhaps?

:0c
{
 LOG="${DUMMY}"
}



LOG="${DUMMY}"

That doesn't define your log file. Assigning a value to LOG writes that value to your log file. It doesn't need to be within a recipe.
