Well, you need [can only have] one .procmailrc file which does the job for
you. It filters all the mails fetched by fetchmail and guides a particular
mail to the particular user given in .procmailrc

You must have some nice docs in your `/usr/doc/' about procmail and 
fetchmail. You can also try

    www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/mail/filtering-faq

and
      www.tuxedo.org/~esr/fetchmail

Hope it helps,

Sanjay
