Sorry to answer to myself, I believe the correct solution is to add

keyserver: debian-sks
debian-sks: "|/path/of/sks_add_mail /path/to/sks/directory"

to /etc/aliases

and add the "procmail entry" to a new file /var/lib/sks/.procmailrc

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Is there a simple procedure to check whether or not this is setup and
working?
