procmail logging is your friend:

in your .procmailrc add these lines (or an appropriate variation):

# LOGFILE should be specified ASAP so everything below it is logged
# Put ## before LOGFILE if you want no logging (not recommended)
LOGFILE=$PMDIR/pmlog

# To insert a blank line between each message's log entry, 
# uncomment next two lines (this is helpful for debugging)
LOG="
"

European had a standard of living not very much superior to that of the
average man in India or China. -- dailyreckoning.com
