Here's a sed script I ran my RMAIL files through to convert them back
to reg'lar old Berkeley format.  I didn't attempt to convert the dates,
and your mail may display funny dates, depending on what's in the
headers in the actual mail files themselves.  I just lived with it.

# at the top, get rid of the first BABYL header totally

/^BABYL/,/^\*\*\* EOOH \*\*\*$/c\

# for every other header, replace with two blank lines and a From line
#
/^/,/^\*\*\* EOOH \*\*\*$/c\

# Finally, get rid of trailing  (that's control-underscore)
