Thunderbird/movemail problem

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.
