Ah.  Well, there is no such thing as a "long-file-name" setting for
nnml (or any of the other mail backends).  nnml really, really wants
something that looks like a normal news spool, where "." in file names
is verboten.

Of course, this is a stupid restriction, so I'll be adding a
`nnmail-use-long-file-names' variable to September.
