Maybe Procmail won't deliver in /tmp because everybody
can read and write there.
Maybe ^Received: .*;.*Nov 2006
doesn't match anything in the mail.
Test that with egrep.
Now I change the rcfile as:
yuwen@latitude:~$ cat rcfile
:0:
* ^Received: .* Dec 2006
/home/yuwen/December
:0:
/dev/null
and the command
$ egrep "^Received: .* Dec 2006" Inbox
have output.
Now I move both Inbox and the expected result to my home dir. But command
$ formail -s < Inbox |procmail /home/yuwen/rcfile
still didn't create /home/yuwen/December.
> A very large file in

That would be the default delivery.
Your procmail file should end with this
:0
/dev/null
to prevent that.
yes, there's no big /var/maile/$LOGNAME now.
Best regards,
