I don't think that tool does what you think it does.
spamproxyd accepts email via SMTP, runs it through SpamAssassin and then
forwards the result via SMTP to another SMTP listener.
I was talking about using a shell-script based pipe to filter email, a
feature that Postfix supports in addition to SMTP-based relay filtering.
spamproxyd can also run as the SMTP listener on port 25 without any
support from the MTA.
procmail only ever comes into the picture during local delivery. It's
got *nothing* to do with spamproxyd or Postfix "simple" filtering.
