I'm not getting the second two lines.

How "should" one correctly get the subject ???

What I did was in my .procmailrc file
SUBJECT=`cat | grep Subject:`

So this resulted in only the first line and not grabbing the additional 2
lines.

Is there a way to correctly get the subject that I have not found?

You'll need to grab the line that starts with "Subject:" and then continue grabbing lines until you find one that doesn't start with whitespace. I don't think you can do this with grep, but you should be able to do it with perl, sed, or awk.
