.qmail contains the lines: | true ./Maildir/
Caveat: I don't use qmail, and don't even particularly like qmail, so what I'm about to say are really educated guesses rather than definitive answers.

No, don't use the -m option. Just use | /usr/bin/procmail and let procmail figure out where the $HOME/.procmailrc file is on its own. If you want any options to procmail there at all, you want the "-d recipient" option (where you'll have to get the value for "recipient" from qmail somehow, I don't know how). Incidentally, I have no idea what the purpose of that pipe to true is, and I suspect you should just remove it.
and in that .procmailrc : DIR="./Maildir/"
What exactly do you think that's accomplishing? If you never refer to $DIR again anywhere, this is meaningless. If you want to change directories, assign to MAILDIR. If you are trying to force procmail to deliver in maildir format, I think what you want is DEFAULT="$HOME/Maildir/" I'm not sure about the $HOME part, but DEFAULT should never be a relative path (never one starting with "./" or with no directory reference at all).
I've no desire to run different configurations for different users or addresses, the single configuration is fine, I just want to solve these errors I'm seeing in the procmail_log file.
Where is this "./.procmailrc" file that you are trying to read with the -m option? That is, what do you expect the current directory (./) to be at the time procmail runs? If you really want exactly this same config for all users, then you should move that ./.procmailrc file (wherever it is) to /etc/procmailrc (with no dot) and insert DROPPRIVS=yes somewhere before the recipe that runs spamassassin, probably at the very top of the file (unless you want all users to write to the same log file as well). If you later add things to /etc/procmailrc, you'll need to research whether they belong above or below the DROPPRIVS (below will usually be safe, but not always correct).
