Hi,
The procmail log file size in ~/.procmail/log seems to have a size limit 
for 52 MB and when reached it stops working. Can this be set to a higher 
value in the .procmailrc file?
procmail afaik does not set the log file size.  it is determined by your
system via in my openSUSE case, logrotate.  ie:
  /etc/logrotate.d/ntp
  /var/log/ntp {
      compress
      dateext
      maxage 365
      rotate 99
      size=+2048k
      notifempty
      missingok
      copytruncate
      postrotate
      chmod 644 /var/log/ntp
      endscript
  }
