The From line at the top of each email is an artifact of the mbox file 
format rather than an actual email header.  It won't be present when an 
email first arrives but rather will be added by your mail server when it 
stores the email into an mbox file.  For that reason I don't bother 
parsing it since it would not provide any help on incoming emails.

I do parse the Received: and From: headers which should contain all of 
the same information.

All the best,
