will pack copies of messages from a folder, into mbox format and
print it to the standard output.

makes an mbox-style delimiter by examining the first line
of the message.  If the first line is a `Return-Path'
field, its address and the current date and time are used.  Otherwise,
if the first line has an `X-Envelope-From' field, its
contents (which should already be in the correct format) are used.
Otherwise, a dummy address and the current date and time are used.

Messages that are packed by
