suspect we could trap any parsing errors and just pass the message through
unmodified.

The above problem won't be solved by 1.1a6, but there are many improvements
and bug fixes since 1.0.4 was released.

This is, I think, not a good idea.  SpamBayes relies on you feeding it
samples of both good and bad mail.
