Why is formail escaping "From " ?

Hi,

I am using procmail/formail to split a huge Inbox file into
separate chunks, according to year and month.

For doing so I am using the command
formail -b -e -d -c -f -m 6 -s procmail < /tmp/mybigfatinbox
where the switch '-b' is supposed to leave the "From " headers
untouched.

I am wondering why the headers get escaped, in spite of the
configuration switch I have used ?

Anyone got an idea why ?

Regards,

Emre

P.S.: I´m using this command as part of an archiving tutorial. Comments
