Thunderbird/movemail problem

[Kevin J. Cummings]

Hi Folks,
	I'm currently running Fedora Core 2, fully updated.  I installed 
Thunderbird 0.7.3 and Firebird 0.9.3 directly from Mozilla.org.

	I have this small anoyance with Thunderbird.  I'm using movemail to 
copy my incoming email to my Thunderbird mailbox.  If any message starts 
a line with the word "from", I see the following when I view it
(excert from a recent message from this list):

> Also, since I cannot get to Linux to use cdrecord/xcdroast to create cd's
> from a boot image. I would need to know a good way to create a boot image
> X-Mozilla-Status: 8000
> X-Mozilla-Status2: 00000000
> from WINDOWS  8^(
> X-Mozilla-Status: 8000
> X-Mozilla-Status2: 00000000

When I look into the mailbox files in my .phoenix directory, I can see 
that the X-Mozilla-Status lines are present there (in the middle of 
these emails) indicating to me that there must a problem with movemail 
doing this when it copies the email from my incoming mailbox, but I 
cannot determine "where" movemail resides, or what version of it I'm 
using.  I don't remember this being a problem when I was using 
Mozilla-mail 1.7.2 (but that is another story, I can no longer run 
mozilla as me, it silently dies, thus the move to Thunderbird).

Does this look familiar to anyone here?  I thought that movemail was 
supposed to replace any lines that begin with "from" with ">from" in 
order to avoid this problem.
