Hashcat doesn't consider the added chars from rules

[gm4it]

Hallo.
I am running hashcat with -a 0 -m 2500 hash -r rule1 -r rule2 wordlist6.
Wordlist6 contains only 6 char long words. The rules add 2 or 3 characters, I checked this by --stdout.

Example: "parola"    after rules  ->   "@parola00"

During initialization it is printed : Minimum password length supported by kernel : 8.
Then hashcat rejects all the words.
It starts to work only with a file of 8 char words only.

I was expecting that 8 is the limit after the rules are applied, not before.
How I can generate candidates of exactly 8 chars after rules are applied?

Thanks
Giorgio
