What is that 'mysterious' bug? If you're referring to procmail inserting
a '>' at the beginning of a line starting with 'From ', it is not a bug.
Quite the contrary, it is a _documented_ feature. 'Classical' mailreaders
took a line starting with 'From ' as the _start_ of a message. Therefore,
procmail intentionally 'quotes' such a line in a message body, so that
mail clients will not be mislead into thinking this is the start of a new
message.
It's not supposed to escape the line unless you are saving to a mbox file, but
it does it seemingly at random when writing to maildirs.
