Consider what happens if you get a message with 30 addresses in the
to/cc headers, only one of which is on your site.
You absolutely *must* preserve both the envelope sender and recipient
information and use that to reinject the mail (remember the envelope
sender may (legitimately) be <> and people may have fun trying to craft
shell expansion sensitive addresses with security implications).
Personally, with exim, I used BSMTP to preserve the envelope and invoke
spamc as a transport filter.
I think procmail is likely to be the wrong solution here.
