Yes, this creates a group with the same name as the
RMAIL file, unfortunately, the group only shows the
*first* message in the RMAIL file, and even that, in a
strange way (*three* times, threaded, with the same
message, though "filled" differently).

Perhaps my RMAIL file is not "sound"? (But, rmail
processes it correctly.)

Yes, this works. (But the above problem makes it work
only for a single mail.)
