In my setup, procmail is run twice, once for each recipient.
Exim removes duplicates if two addresses are aliases of a common address, for
example if you have the following in /etc/aliases:
bar: foo
then a mail to foo and bar will only be delivered once.
If you post the relevant parts of your configuration we can help you find out
what's wrong. Also, you have checked in the log that procmail is indeed only
called once, right?
