Each message starts with a From_ line. That's a line where the first
five(!) characters are "From ". Note the space.
Each message ends with an empty line. That's two consecutive newline
characters.
Usually, this means that a message must not contain a From_ line,
except at the beginning. But Gnus has been augmented to look at
Content-Length (I think) and Lines headers so that From_ lines in the
middle are not a problem.
