Hi Thomas,

I know - you didn't need to in this case. Let's get a bit more
clarity:

1). When importing messages from a Unix mailbox, all messages *MUST*
start with this "From" line.

2). TB does *NOT* have any other use for this and does *NOT* recognize
it in an incoming mail stream.

3). Any such "stream-wise" recognition is down to Unix servers
on-the-way.

TF>>> This explains why the message is split at that line.

MDP>> Ah! Yes - it has been dissected by a UNIX router on the way to

TF> If it was "on the way" to my machine, how did the second part

Because it is likely to have happened while the server was saving the
received message in your POP box, so it knew it was dealing with a
message for you. It just turned it into two messages, one of which was
a complete mess.
