441 From: address not in Internet syntax

1997-06-25 03:17:00
Hi,

I want to forward the mail generated by expire to a folder called "
Local.news.inn"

this is the recipe:

:0 b              
* ^From.*news     
| inews -a "Local" -f "`formail -xFrom:`" \
  -t "`formail -xSubject:`" -S -n Local.news.inn

but I always get this: (procmail log)

From news  Wed Jun 25 10:59:19 1997
 Subject: dumbo daily usenet report for Wed Jun 25 10:58:15 CEST 1997
  Folder: inews -a Local -f  news -t  dumbo daily usenet report for
Wed    1671
Can't send article to the server:
        441 From: address not in Internet syntax
(Article not posted.)  

I can't get expire to provide a different From name than "news"
even the CE entry in sendmail.cf doesn't do the job, only expire sends
"news" and not "news(_at_)localhost" for example

any hints please ?

bye
