So, to summarize:
. the problem happens only in emails that have MIME-Version: header
. the problem happens only in emails that have just the body, no
attachments
. the problem happens because rmail-show-mime doesn't remove the ">"
from ">From" when it shows the plan-text MIME content
Is that correct?
