After upgrading my system from FC2 to FC3 I am having a problem with my mail
delivery system. I am receiving multiple copies of mail messages, somewhere in
the range of 5 duplicates per mail message. I use fetchmail to get my mail from
my ISP mail.comcast.net. I use sendmail as my mail handler and procmail to
filter the mail messages having rules to use spamassassin and clamav virus
checker. I did not have these problems when using FC2. Here is a display of my
.procmailrc file:

####################################################################
#  Sample Procmail File "/home/rmiles/.procmail" #
######################################################
#       Do a "man procmail" for more examples
#
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
MAILDIR=/var/spool/mail
DEFAULT=/var/spool/mail/rmiles
LOGFILE=/home/rmiles/MailBAG
#
#
:0 HB
* ^Content-Type.*image.*gif.*name.*\.gif
* ^Content-Disposition.*attachment.*filename.*\.gif
{
        :0
        /dev/null
}
:0fw
| /usr/local/bin/clamassassin
:
:0:
* ^X/dev/null
DROPPRIVS=YES

### spamassassin rule
:0fw
| /usr/bin/spamc
## SPAM
:0:
*X-Spam-Status: Yes,*
#/home/rmiles/spam
/dev/null
#$MAILDIR/spam_Virus-Status: Yes

I dont't know what the problem is.
Does anyone know what might be causing this behavior.
Thank you for any help you might give me.
