[New-bugs-announce] [issue11728] mbox parser incorrect behaviour

[valera]

New submission from valera <vmasutin at apache.org>:

mailbox.mbox  parser is splitting mbox files by "^From " pattern, which is wrong , in fairy it should split mbox by "\nFrom ".
Illustration:
------
>From bla-blah at localhost
Header1
Header2
body1
body2

>From blah-blah2 at localhost
Header1
body1
>From your dear friend
body3

------
This mbox would be splitted in 3 messages instead of 2
