*Everything* works as expected ;-)

Indeed, the "From " line is not part of the message, but of the
"mailbox" format (that defines a way to store mail messages
within a single file).

If you save the messages back to a folder (of type "Mail::Box::Mbox"),
the "From " lines will be back again.

Best,
