So install it yourself or as them to.

For example, I have the following as my .forward

"|IFS=' '&&p=/usr/local/bin/procmail&&test -f $p&&exec $p -Yf-|| exit 75 kris"

but you could easily make that /home/kris/bin/procmail or whatever.

If your site has set up the MTA so it only can invoke certain programs
(e.g. using smrsh) then you'll need admin co-operation, but usually
they're quite willing to let procmail be used.
