Package: procmail
Version: 3.22-16
Severity: normal
When procmail is not in explicit delivery mode but in filter mode
(-m), it still insists on adding a '^From ' header, even if my last
recipe removes it with 'grep -v "^From "'.
This is in disagreement with the manual page procmail(1):
When in explicit delivery mode, procmail will generate a leading
‘From’ line if none is present.
I am trying to use procmail as a filter and I don't want the From
line.

No, I am actually delivering to |/bin/cat. I am trying to make
procmail into a Unix-style filter.

Let me do it. procmail is actually not adding the From header. It's
a formail pipe in the recipe. It was late last night...
