I'll let the smail experts chime in on this one.

Put it in your "~/.procmailrc". It will put all the debian realated mail
in a mail/Deb-user file. BTW, the following should be at the top of your
.procmailrc:
# the following the the .procmailrc for Brandon Mitchell
# first some variables are initialized
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/home/bhmit1/bin
HOME=/home/bhmit1
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail # you'd better make sure it exists
DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/bhmit1 # completely optional
LOCKFILE=$HOME/.procmail/lockmail
LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmail/from.log # you probably want to trim this
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail # put all procmail scripts here
VERBOSE=off # turn on for debuging the logfile
Then, in pine, add mail/Deb-user to the list of incoming-folders. Tabing
at the end of one folder should offer opening the next one with new
messages in it.
Good luck,
Brandon
P.S. I almost forgot, removing the Resent-cc will eliminate the problem in
pine when replying to this group. No more unexpected data in the cc list.
