[Dovecot] Maildir format, "From " in the first line

Hello,

Using Dovecot's deliver MDA, all mails are stored with the line
"From <sender>  <date>" appended. When forwarding these mails as attachements, 
the recipients get the source code.

When Postfix delivers emails directly in the Maildirs, this first line is not 
appended, and there is no problem when forwarding the mails.

Why is this line appended by deliver ? Is there a way to remove it ? Or is 
there something else I can do to avoid this forwarding problem.

I'm using Dovecot 1.0.rc15 from Debian Etch.

Regards
