If the rmail output file is in a buffer, the message you're saving
doesn't get put at the end.  In fact, it doesn't even get put in in a
clean place: it gets put in where point happens to be, which may
totally screw up the structure of your RMAIL file.

To reproduce:

Get into RMAIL.
"o" into file foobar.
Visit file foobar, and go to its top (M-<).
Now go back into RMAIL, and "o" again.

Look at foobar: the message has been put in before the BABYL OPTIONS,
breaking the structure of the foobar file.
