Just 'coz I'm infinitely curious: which platform? :]

Well,  UNIX  mailbox  (AFAIK)  just exports the messages as their text
version,  with  full headers (Kludges, as TB! calls 'em), and at least
one  empty  line  between  messages  (where each message starts with a
From).

If  you try the export function without !rmail separated, maybe that's
closest  to  this  format... For your reference of what it should look
like, I've included a ZIPped version of a UNIX mailbox file of some of
the messages of this thread. Maybe that'll help? You can use your text
editor  of  choice  to  compare  and  see  which exported format comes
closest...

Today's hidden secret:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When G-d was creating the human race, he lined up all the males on one side
and all the females opposite.  Then he asked, "Which of your species would
like to urinate standing up?"  Well, the males went crazy, shouting that
they wanted to pee standing up.  "Fine", says G-d, "Women get multiple
orgasms."
