Hello Sergey, thank you very much for the patch! It seems to work fine, 
though I plan to test it thoroughly some time later. One question only:

What exactly is it supposed to read from stdin? An email exactly as it 
is, or an mbox-like dot-quoted email starting with "From ..."?

I am asking because I managed to segfault mail.local, even though I'm 
probably feeding it with invalid data. :-) For your info, it happens 
when the first line is "From - " and the backtrace is:

Thanks again for the patch, tell me if you plan to apply it to main 
branch, so that I do further testing.
