     I am most concerned about the corrupted mail boxes, haven't had
them in ages.  This is a popper only machine, no one has direct access.

Does your call to procmail (from sendmail or .forward) include the -f-
flag?  See `man procmail'.  This should obviate missing From_ lines.
Otherwise, a known bug involves some filtering recipes (that use the
f flag) which can, under some circumstances, corrupt From_.  Check
the list archives for examples of kludges with sed to fix this.
