Unix From lines, change the UnixMailbox class so that _search_start()
positions the file *before* the Unix From line instead of after it;
change _search_end() to skip one line before looking for the next From
line. The rfc822.Message class automatically recognizes these Unix
From lines and squirrels them away in the 'unixfrom' instance variable.
