I don't think you need to append $MAILDIR to the beginning of every
line. The way I have procmailrc up is:

>>>>>>
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail/
LOGFILE=$HOME/.procmaillog
VERBOSE=no

# Mailing lists

# debian-user
:0
* ^TO_debian-user
debian-user/
>>>>>>

Which works fine for me.

You may want to add the mailboxes to your muttrc.

>>>
# Add an item for each mailbox
mailboxes ~/mail/debian-user
>>>

And

>>>
# tell mutt about my mailing lists
subscribe debian-user
>>>

You should repeat that for every mailbox you have.
