If you have lines beginning ">From ", then I'd think they're probably in
the body of the message and not in the headers. If so formail won't work
and you'll have to use sed, or perl, or some other tool of your choice
as a body filter. Something like this (untested) might work:
:0fbw
* B ?? ^>From +
| sed s/>From/X-Escaped-From:/
This will modify all such lines. If it's important to limit it just to
those that were once an envelope From line, then maybe something like:
:0fbw
* B ?? ^>From +[^ ]+ +(S(un|at)|Mon|T(ue|hu)|Wed|Fri)
|perl -pe 's/^>From *(\S+ +(S(un|at)|Mon|T(ue|hu)|Wed|Fri).*)/X-Escaped-From:
$1/;'

Reply to list please, or append "6" to "procmail" in address if you must.
Spammers' unrelenting address harvesting forces me to this...reluctantly.
