Re: Recognize mbox files?

[Richard M Stallman]

    I see no reason _not_ to use the From_ line... it rarely contains
    anything particularly valuable (other than the "From_" prefix which
    marks it as a separator), and since its syntax isn't well-defined, any
    information that _is_ there is only ever used for human perusal -- and
    appending a -*- variable doesn't cause problems for humans.

We would need to verify that this does not cause problems in any other
often-used mail reader program.
