I mean lines that start with 'From ' and look like this:
	'From daemon Tue Mar  4 02:16:28 1997'

der Mouse argues for changing the Agent, is that elm or mail.local ?
mail.local has code for escaping From but doesn't seem to do it.
I noticed that "mail" has no problem with the above line appearing
in a mail.
