The ">" in front of "From " in message bodies IS REQUIRED.
Of course it's required -- as long as the file is serving as a real mbox. That's why I put the ">" back in before having Mailman index the files for the archives of the new lists. ("Undoing that change was easy enough" is how I put it in my first post about this.)
I had started taking out the ">" long ago when I thought the only future use for these files would be as human-readable text files, where the ">" would be perceived as clutter or as a mistaken attempt to indicate quotation. There's no law that says what was once an mbox file has to remain an mbox file forever if nobody's going to read it except in a notepad or word processor. Which is what I expected at the time.
