I have fetchmail and procmail set up just fine, and they are working, but here is the problem. When I get my mail and procmail it, I make a logfile. However, the log-file does not have the sender's name in it but rather my name (because I fetched it from my pop server). This is not much use to me, and would really help if I could find a way to get procmail to provide me with the sender's name.
