Procmail includes a macro, ^TO_, that will check both the To and Cc
headers.  From the procmailrc man page:

       If the regular expression contains `^TO_' it will be substituted
       by `(^((Original-)?(Resent-)?(To|Cc|Bcc)|(X-Envelope
       |Apparently(-Resent)?)-To):(.*[^-a-zA-Z0-9_.])?)', which should
       catch all destination specifications containing a specific
       address.
