Petri Lehtinen <pe...@digip.org> added the comment:

The default mode for reading mbox files should also be modified a bit to 
maximize the support fordifferent implementations. See #11728.

I think we should still use the mboxo format by default when writing, and the 
"default" format of RFC 4155 when reading. We could then add a "format" 
parameter to the mbox constructor to alter the writing and/or reading behavior 
to match a specific mbox format.

According to RFC 4155, the best reference for different mbox formats is 
http://qmail.org./man/man5/mbox.html.
