A couple of possibilities come to mind. A line looking like:

    From [EMAIL PROTECTED]

is used to seperate different emails. If it's being removed you will
have problems. The other thing is that the mbox format is picky about
certain things, like trailing empty lines. Look at the actual file and
find out what doesn't look right and then fix your procmail action
accordingly. Try looking up the specifications for mbox style mail boxes
online to find out what's wrong with your file.
