New install omits mbox "From <addr> <date> <time>" separator

Situation: procmail v3.23pre 2001/09/13 running on a new devuanbeowulf install, using an unaltered .procmailrc which has servedflawlessly for decades on the old host. The .procmailrc guides distribution of incoming emails to a dozenmailboxes, but on the new host is heading each email with a linelike: X-Default-Received-SPF: pass (skip=forwardok (res=PASS)) x-ip-name=150.101.137.105; omitting the mbox format email separator: "From ...".That, naturally stuffs mutt up mightily until I edit in some separatorsby hand. Neither the procmail nor procmailrc manpages seem to offer anycontrol for this, so I haven't yet been able to find where to stick thescrewdriver in and twist. Any pointers would help save what hair Ihave left. Erik
