	I wouldn't bother, personally. Mailbox format is exceedingly
simple: just a "From " line, a bunch of header lines (with some simple
sanity-checking), a blank line, and the body of the message. Hardly
worth installing a new module.
	You may want to use the "Status:" header to record whether the
message has been read or not.

	By the way, when you respond to an email message, could you
please not quote the entire message that you're responding to? It
wastes bandwidth. And quoting the original message at the bottom makes
it hard to follow the thread of the conversation.
