That's what's in the file. It's possible I grabbed an archive from mailman 
and dropped it in the directory ages ago, as mailman obfuscates addresses 
like that. Perhaps 0.99 wasn't as fussy about the separator line and just 
looked for "From " at the beginning of a line. (Not saying fussy is bad. ;))

I can probably cook up a Perl regex to fix it but it's just a couple of 
list archives at this point so I'm not too worried about them. My biggest 
problem was that the mail client (Mulberry) was stopping it's new-mail scan 
over my hiearchy when it hit the bad folders, so I had to move them out of 
the tree.
