Oh, how nice it would be if you could do that! It would make for much
tider rc files.

INCLUDERC has to be either a standalone line in an rc file, or the
action line (enclosed by braces). The INCLUDERC file itself also
should be a valid procmailrc-style file (i.e., valid, complete
syntax):

    INCLUDERC=blocklist.rc

or

    :0
    * H ?? ^TO_me@mydomain\.com
    { INCLUDERC=blocklist.rc }

would work.
