Description:
------------
Messages splitted incorrectly, not according to the specification, which states that a sign of the new message is a blank line, followed by a line beginning with "From". In Mail_Mbox same is checked only "From".
P.S. My patch is attached to the bug.

Sorry, you are incorrect.
The specification (http://www.qmail.org/man/man5/mbox.html) states:
> The reader should not attempt to take advantage of the fact that every
> From_ line (past the beginning of the file) is preceded by a blank line.

This bug has been fixed in version 0.6.2 of Mail_Mbox.
The real problem was that messages with "From " in their message text were split. I implemented proper message escaping as defined by the specs, so this problem is gone.
