Hi there.

For most of the time i was using fetchmail, smail and procmail for
my private workstation to handle all the mailing lists (MLs).  Just
out of curiosity i started using exim as my MTA and... wow... i am
impressed.  It's much easier to configure than smail/sendmail, is
still lightweight (allways a concern for me), has a RBL spamfilter
included and you can also filter your you emails with it so i was able
to purge procmail from my computer.  

My opinion right now?  I tried some, but exim is for sure the best
solution to handle your private email.

This is what replaced my ~/.procmailrc:

    # Exim filter
    if error_message then finish endif

    if $h_sender: matches "owner-(.*)@" then
        save Mail/inbox.$1
    elif $h_x-mailing-list: matches "([a-z0-9\-]+)@" then
        save Mail/inbox.$1
    elif not delivered then
        save Mail/inbox
    endif

Much more readable even if you see it for the first time.
