Ok. I'm a bit of a privacy nut myself, so this seems like a legitimate problem that you need a solution for (well, that you created a solution for...). Thanks very much for the patch; that definitely reduced the time I needed to find to do this. I've released getmail v.5.5 with this addion, except I shortened the parameter name to record_mailbox. One thing from your report, however: > entirely instead, except for the effect it has on %(mailbox) in the > external MDA case.

The added header and the %(mailbox) substitution in external command arguments are unrelated; other than using the same source for their data, there's no connection between them. Turning the header off does not break %(mailbox) substitution in MDA_external aguments in my testing. If you can show me how to reproduce this problem, I'll take a look at it.
