I'm of course no expert in majordomo mailinglist setup, but from the look
of it, I'd say that majordomo is needlessly generating an extra header.
A configuration problem perhaps?

Presumably, inside of procmail, you're feeding the mail to "formail -r"
somewhere to "reverse" the header and generate an auto-reply header.
The simplest solution would probably be to simply delete the leading
header first.
I.e. feed it through:
sed -e '1,/^$/ d' | formail -r
A slightly more involved solution will be needed if you insist
on getting the Subject: Re: line from the first header.
