Hmm -- on my quick reading of the formail man page, the
command looks to be well-formed, but when I ran this it 
did not register an event in the procmail.log or show any
other visible result.

However, in this case "test.mbox" is exactly one message
long anyway, so "cat test.mbox | procmail -m e:/.procmailrc"
alone should presumably have yielded the sought-for result?
