Even users of mboxo shouldn't even have a problem because in your
message the F of the "From " line is encoded in quoted-printable:

| =46rom blahhityblah Fri Jul  8 12:08:34 2011
| >From foobarbaz Fri Jul  8 12:08:34 2011
| >>From quux Fri Jul  8 12:08:34 2011

So, there's no possible corruption due to the mailbox format.
