Hi Peter.

I wouldn't offer myself as an expert on these matters, but isn't From <space> valid as a first line?  Or only as a sperator in mbox-style files.  In any case, here's an example.  It works fine with 2.0.16

Yes, you can simply

apt-get remove libgmime2 libgmime2-dev

and then install the compiled tar-ball to /usr/local

Everything works fine for me (but I have to admit that I don't use any
