At the ~/.procmailrc level it definitely would be doing this, but the 
"system wide" application is typically /etc/procmailrc and the owner is 
ROOT.  My original assumption that I question here is if this system 
wide procmail filter will really address three message?  If so, then 
that would mean bogofilter would have to process it three times, and 
with '-u' this could potentiall be problematic if you have a significant 
number of recipients.  robs/robx would become very important here.
