Has anyone ever seen this behaviour in sendmail 8.11.6?

When the sendmail daemon receives an email for sending to a local mailbox
it appends the email to the end of the user's file OK, but removes the
leading "F" in the envelope line so that instead of reading:

>From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Fri Nov  1 15:07:18 2002
it reads:
rom [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Fri Nov  1 15:07:18 2002

When an MUA goes to read this then it bombs and logs an error that the
file is not in mailbox format.

It really has got me spooked.  I don't know whether it is the sendmail MTA
or a library problem.
