From 'man procmail':

       Suspicious rcfile "x"  The owner of the rcfile was not the
                              recipient or root, or the directory
                              that   contained   it   was   world
                              writable (the rcfile was not used).

Change the ownership of .procmailrc to the user the mail is going to, or
make the home directory non-world writable.
