problems with -Y

2002-05-06 17:29:27
I'm having problems with -Y; it appears not to work. I'm using

bosphorus 78 % procmail -v
procmail v3.15.2 2001/07/18

If I utter

procmail -Y < frump

where the file "frump" contains (without the leading two-char escape)

The next line begins with an unescaped From.
From Frum Frump.
and now we have one preceded by a blank line, which is what really delimits 
the
unix mailbox

From the land of sky blue waters.

and just for completeness, here's one that looks like a unix-from line

From tal  Thu Jan 10 12:29:00 2002

that's all folks.

I end up with "three" new messages being seen by my MUA, not one. 

There's no Content-Length, I am invoking with -Y, it really seems that
provmail should be escaping the two From-lookalikes.

Help?

Thanks,
chris
