MBOX_FORMAT_SUCKS From the debian archive, like this:
stefan:~$ dlocate /usr/bin/ftp # What package is ftp in?
# Maybe alternatives...
stefan:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/ftp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Aug 2 2003 /usr/bin/ftp -> /etc/alternatives/ftp
stefan:~$ ls -l /etc/alternatives/ftp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Aug 2 2003 /etc/alternatives/ftp -> /usr/bin/netkit-ftp
stefan:~$ dlocate /usr/bin/netkit-ftp # Who provides netkit-ftp?
ftp: /usr/bin/netkit-ftp
stefan:~$ cd /usr/src/ # location doesn't really matter
You have new mail in /var/mail/stefan # OT
stefan:/usr/src$ apt-get source ftp # <- THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART
