No, because the first 'content' line of the body of the message is an unescaped otherwise-valid From_ line. Using your regex (or the more simplisting /^From /), it would be identified as a seperate message, rather than part of the actual message that it is. The ONLY way to 'get it right' that I can see is to trust the Content-Length: header. (The problem that cropped up in my test parse.
