System: rn version 4.1
Bug #: 6
Priority: HIGH
Subject: articles saved to mailbox start with "From: " instead of "From ".
Index: common.h

Description:
	The format of MBOXSAVER causes articles saved in "mailbox" format
	to start with a From line with a colon, which confuses mailers.

Repeat-By:
	Save an article in mailbox format.  If it starts with "From: " you
	have the problem.

Fix:	The solution is to delete the colons.

	From rn, say "| patch -d DIR", where DIR is your rn source directory.
	Outside of rn, say "cd DIR; patch <thisarticle".  If you don't have
	the patch program, apply the following by hand, or get patch.
