bug#2196: 23.0.90; rmail not reading email

Subject: bug#2196: 23.0.90; rmail not reading email
Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2009 14:24:31 +0000

I have just tried to read new mail (g) in rmail mode

unrmail will not touch it as there are no *** EOOH *** lines.  Looks
liek I need to do a lot of hand editing.

This was working on my other machine.  Only significant different I
can think of it that teh mail is from po:jpff rather than a file
