Does procmail allow for extended character sets to pass through it...
that is, if I sent an 8bit message will the 8th bit be chewed off by
procmail and spit in the bit-bucket? I installed 8.7.5 sendmail and
procmail at the same time and have checked my .cf file for O7False and it
exists but 8bit messages no longer are going through and I am wondering
if it has to do with procmail...?

Right out of the procmail man page:
Procmail is NFS-resistant and eight-bit clean.
If you believe that procmail is guilty of a bug, simply pipe some mail
through procmail without involving sendmail at all:
testrc:
:0
newmail
% procmail -m testrc <some-8bit-e-mail
% cmp some-8bit-e-mail newmail
If the high bits are stripped, every line will show different.
The more likely cause is a non-8-bit-clean filter being run within
procmail, or sendmail is not configured correctly (old frozen config
file still running?).
