Description Maciej Stachowiak 2001-09-11 00:22:39 UTC 
This leads to Nautilus doing the text preview thing on them, and
opening them in the text viewer, which seems a bit silly.

I noticed this while browsing around in my nsmail folder in Nautilus.

I guess we could check for "From " at the start of the file... Its not
a particularly safe magic check, but what the hell :)
