AFAIK, procmail doesn't need to use safecat - it can write safely to
Maildir by itself. You can just use:
:0
* ^X-Span-Status: Yes.*
${SPAMDIR}/
...ensuring you have the trailing slash to tell procmail that it is a
Maildir.

But your original problem seems to be here. Clearly one of your paths is
wrong or non-existent.
