	It has happened to me a couple times that when I refile an
article in RMAIL using rmail-output-to-rmail-file (o), the message gets
appended to the last message in the file (rather than being appended
as another message in the file).  This means I get messages with

[end of prev. message]
^_
From: ...

in them, as well as "*** EOOH ***", and so forth.


	I have two questions.  It doesn't seem likely to me that this
is emacs' fault.  Any thoughts, though, on what might be causing this?
(I'm hardly a novice emacs user.)

	Second, any thoughts on how to take several such appended
messages and split them up again?  In the past I have simply written
them (using write-region) individually, deleted the message, and then
read them back using rmail-input (i).  This is a pain when you
discover that ten or twenty messages have been so appended.
