I am trying to extract fields using formail. I am using the procmail 3.13.1
distribution. For example, I'd like to extract the Subject: field from the
following message, but as long as I have the "Received" lines in there, I
can't extract it. If I delete from the first Received line to the line before
the Message-ID, it works fine. How do I get it to work? Most of my mail comes
with Received headers.
Any help would be appreciated.

My test command is:
1> cat amail | formail -x Subject:
My file "amail" is:
