Package: procmail
Version: 3.22-16
Severity: important

Mailstat will, by default, truncate the input logfile. I
think this is un-intuitive behaviour that can make
unexpected data loss quite likely. I think the default
behaviour should be as the -k switch toggles, with perhaps
a new command-line switch being introduced to truncate
where desired.
