I do this in Procmail with the following right before copying tagged
messages to MBOX files for logging.

----- snip -- procmailrc ---------

# Put From at beginning for MBOX format so Pine can read
:0 fhw
| formail -I "From " -a "From "

|Most people use mbox style mail folders, the "From " at the start of a
|line indicates a new message in the folder, so (indented):
|
|  From blah@foo ...
|  Message headers ...
|
|  Message body
|
|  From blarg@foo ...
|  Message headers ...
|
|  Message body
|
|Since most people use them, the default is to add the separator.
|
|Although in thinking about it, people don't really use SA for delivery
|any more, so we should probably just not add the From line and let
|procmail (or insert your favorite program here) handle the From line.
|Not my call though.
