alias and procmail

In my e-mail server, every mailbox is saved to another mailbox as a
backup.
This is my /etc/aliases

user1: user1, user1_save
user2: user2, user2_save

I've implemented spamassassin.
By using procmail,
if the subject of every message contains the word {Spam?},
this message is forwarded to the mailbox "spam"

However, every spam message has two copies in the mailbox spam,
because user1 and user1_save are both processed by procmail

How can I make just user1 is processed by procmail,
while user1_save is NOT processed by procmail?

Remove the aliases, use procmail to file a carbon copy of the mail to the
_save mailbox and to run spamassassin at once. This will save you the assle
of creating an alias for every user and will make things easier for the
mail server that doesn't have to duplicate every mail.
