Sebb commented on MIME4J-259:
-----------------------------

As a short-term fix, the entries in FromLinePatterns could be changed to use 
"\r?\n" instead of "$" and the code changed to drop the +1.

However I think it would be better to return the full chunk including the From_ 
line, as that has potentially useful info.

>
> The MboxIterator class assumes that the EOL consists of a single character, 
> so it increments findEnd by 1 to get the start of the message.
> This causes problems for files which have a CRLF line ending, because the 
> generated message contains a leading LF which confuses the parser.
> The iterator should ensure that the entire EOL is skipped.
> However it might be better to keep the From_ line in the returned message.
> The parser can then process it to extract its data.
