I have clamd and spammassassind running as daemons.
Then, the /etc/procmailrc has:

# Let clamassassin to check viruses:
:0fw
| /usr/local/bin/clamassassin

# if infected, put them in a special folder:
:0:
* ^X-Virus-Status: Yes
/opt/virusfiles

# if not, let it go through spamassassin:
# each user run his own.

Then, users .procmailrc has (I set them all the same,
but then they can change it if a user wants):

:0 fw
* < 256000
| /usr/bin/spamc -f

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Level: \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*
$MAILDIR/almost-spam

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
$MAILDIR/probably-spam

So, as you said, I expect greylist should show up
anyway, but they don't for almost-spam and
probably-spam emails, only for normal emails.  

The system log does not show anything about normal
emails, but only for normal emails: delayed or not
auto-whitelist, etc.

Also, all autowhitelisted normal emails show
X-Greylist:..., no exception, no problem.
