IIRC, the default delivery instruction in /var/qmail/rc can be a pipe
to a program. So you can qmail-start "| preline /path/to/procmail"
and have mail by default run through procmail. Of course, you still
have a .qmail problem: any user with a .qmail will override the
default instruction. "man qmail-command" gives you some details.
