David,
I don't think I received that one.
I personally don't believe that permissions are the issue here.
Me neither.
Perhaps if a sanitized version of your .procmail file could be pasted so
we may be able to help you better?
Not sure what to sanitize so I'll post all recipes in ~/.procmailrc.
You'll
note that several have multiple formats as I try to find one that works.
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail
DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/rshepard
ORGMAIL=/var/spool/mail/rshepard
LOGFILE=$PMDIR/log

The problem is likely that you do not have PMDIR set and so it can't
open any files.
Try adding this and trying again:
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail

To refine my answer, your output above indicates that it is attempting
to open the file named "log" in the root ("/") directory, and that
probably doesn't exist, and it likely wouldn't have the permissions
required if it did.
I stand by the suggestion to configure the PMDIR value above the LOGFILE
specification.
