Do you talk about "your OS account" procmail delivering to 
"your OS account" mailbox/maildir?

YES => consider using "personal" dovecot.conf file (e.g.
~/.dovecotrc)
       with changed log files location and make deliver in your procmail
       scripts use it

../deliver -c /home/anfi/.dovecotrc

P.S. I use such approach with full success.

If you want 'deliver' to log in user home directories, change log path
in your
global dovecot configuration, e.g.:
protocol lda {
  [...]
  log_path = ~/.MAIL/deliver.log
  info_log_path = ~/.MAIL/deliver.log
 }
