you need to tweak your procmail's command so it adds the From delimiter, there's an option for that. smtpd used to add the From delimiter for mda, which allowed procmail not to require that option, however this wasn't correct and when we made the mda improvements between 6.3 and 6.4, it became impossible to accomodate procmail without introducing special cases and ugly hacks such as having explicit search for the string 'procmail' in .forward files. it wasn't worth it when people can just pass procmail an option. also don't use procmail, it's trash and there are far better options for you to use today, fdm being the first to come to mind :-) -- Gilles Chehade @poolpOrg https://www.poolp.org tip me: https://paypal.me/poolpOrg
