Subject: bug#2196: 23.0.90; rmail not reading email

I think the culprit is movemail in lib-src

the mail I collected is in a central server, and I have always
collected mail using po:jpff which calls movemail

Looking at the course of movemail.c after I sent the report i see
references to ^_ and similar that suggests to me that it is not
working in mbox format.

line 908-914 lib-src/movemail.c
  if (line[0] == '\037')
    {
      if (fputs ("^_", mbf) == EOF)
	return (NOTOK);
      line++;
      len--;
    }
