log file - multiple instances trip over each other in the log

2005-12-08 11:11:56
In my log file, I'm getting cluttered log entries, I'm assuming
that it is because of multiple instances of procmail that run
when several emails come in at once.

Here is what my log looks like:
========================================

------
For: gid.rdanis
------

========================================

As you can see, every log entry starts with a ------.  But like here,
three emails came in at once, and the log entries aren't seperated,
as shown in this log snippet:
========================================
------
For: gid.lkasten
 From emailhidden(_at_)gid(_dot_)net  Thu Dec  8 11:18:25 2005
  Subject: Subject hidden (private info)
   Folder: /var/spool/mail/gid.lkasten            2242
------
For: gid.fanofjesus
 From emailhidden(_at_)domainhidden(_dot_)com  Thu Dec  8 11:21:59 2005
  Subject: RE: calling all cars, come in Officer!
   Folder: /var/spool/mail/gid.fanofjesus          5230
------

  Subject: Re: Takes out all image on body

========================================

   That's how it should look - at least how I'd like it to look
at all times.

   I thought that I remembered someone posting something in this
list fairly recently about this very issue, but searching of
the list archives and man pages didn't come to fruition.

   Anyone have any suggestions or anything?  I can post my
  /etc/procmailrc file if needed.

Mr Duck
