  you should make sure procmail gets called, somehow. this:

  (i.e., the absence of a procmail-log file) suggests that it isn't being
  called.

  you can setup your MTA (to which fetchmail delivers your messages) to
  use procmail, our you can use the --mda option for fetchmail (keyword:
  mda), telling to pass mail to procmail instead to the local MTA.
