You have to use another procmail rule to check the headers of the 
messages. In my case , here's what I use:
### spamassassin rule
:0 fw spamassassin.lock
| /usr/bin/spamc

## SPAM
:0:
*^X-Spam-Status: Yes.*
$MAILDIR/spam


This moves all the messages that spamassassin marks as spam to my spam 
folder.. Dont know if vipuls adds any headers , but probably it does.. 
You only have to see which header it adds and create a rule for it in 
procmail... Or , if it doesnt add any header , you can use its exit code 
too (man procmail and man procmailex have good details about it).
