Page 79 is probably the most relevant, as it talks about sendmail
mangling messages where more than one line matches /^From:/
This problem still exists in mbox, because according to the
specification you identify the start of a new message by detecting
/\n^From:/
From there you have a problem.
maildir isn't in Unix-Haters; more info here[1] and in the maildir(5)
man page on your nearest SunOS box.
