I'm in favour of this patch since I have more than 294 967 mbox
files with one email each in my maildir hierarchy.  I guess it
has something to do with my procmail scripts.  Perhaps this also
happens to other users.

I did not have the time to hunt down the bug in my procmail setup.

Actually I only checked for files with a first "From " line
because of the discussion on this mailing list.



Ciao, Gregor
