Under qmail, preline is a procmail user's best friend. It adds a From_
line and a Delivered-To: header showing the actual envelope sender and
envelope recipient. By relying on procmail's -f- instead, you depend
on what procmail knows, which by that point is only who owns the process.
You may or may not need to specify the entire path to preline, depending
on whether it is in qmail's default PATH (it should be):
| preline /usr/local/bin/procmail -Yt || exit 75
