Description Timo Sirainen 2009-06-19 17:44:16 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
I'm using IMAP to store my mails. mbox format is used nowhere. Not in Evolution, not in my IMAP server. It's absolutely unnecessary and highly annoying to modify lines beginning with From to become >From.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Compose a new email containing From at the beginning of the line.
2. Open the mail from Sent -mailbox and/or open the mail from the recipient's mailbox.


Actual results:
Line has been modified to >From .


Expected results:
Line should still be From .


Does this happen every time?
Yes.
