This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

In GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
 of 2002-11-05 on stripples.devel.redhat.com
configured using `configure  --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu

Important settings:

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

This search in rmail-convert-to-babyl-format:

                 (if (re-search-forward
                      (concat "^[\^_]?\\("
                              rmail-unix-mail-delimiter
                              "\\|"
                              rmail-mmdf-delim1 "\\|"
                              "^BABYL OPTIONS:\\|"
                              "\^L\n[01],\\)") nil t)

should be done with case-fold-search set to nil, as opposed to right
now, when it's set to t.  Unix mail delimiters are case-sensitive.

I actually encountered a message today with text in the middle of it
that matched rmail-unix-mail-delimiter case-insensitively, which
caused rmail-convert-to-babyl-format to fail.
