stopping ">From" mangling with procmail, postfix, and maildir

2004-12-15 12:09:16
I'm using the postfix MTA with procmail for delivery, (generally-speaking)
into Maildir format mailboxes. I don't want postfix to prepend '\nFrom '
lines with '>' -- it serves no useful purpose and breaks things.

From the procmail man page, it looks as if procmail decides to do this
whenever a Content-Length header isn't found. And postfix doesn't add that
(largely broken) header (and in fact, correctly strips it from any
incoming messages).

Is there a way to make procmail either never mangle From in the body of
messages, or at the very least to never do it when delivering to Maildir?

Thanks!
