My boss came in in a panic today saying "Elm says my mail file is corrupt
and can't read it" !<>?

Trouble is, last time he read his mail, he typed e, apparently hit a few
returns (and good old emacs is modeless and entered em right in, unlike vi
which would have beeped at him :-) and got out and saved it and went home.
So today elm sees blank lines and pukes.

I haven't looked at a fix for this yet, but thought I'd point it out before
1.7 hits the streets, so to speak.
