Re: [Evolution] Mbox importing fails

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

Mailbox format should start with a line (and each message is separate by
a line) of the form:

> From user host domain Mon Nov  2 12:00:00 2000

Then the raw message follows.

If it doesn't, then it isn't even close to being mbox.

btw 1.x says nothing, you need the revision number too, 1.0 or 1.2 or
1.4 ...
