Aha! This reminds me of the primary reason that the blank lines were
included (how could I possibly have forgotten?) Consider:
mush> mail -i 2,4,7
Without the inclusion of the blank lines, the text of the three included
messages runs together indistiguishably.
HOWEVER, Dan has already informed me that he prefers that the blank lines
be omitted. SO, it will change in this way: A blank line WITHOUT any
indent_str prefixing it will be included between the texts of each pair of
included messages.
Does that make everyone happy?
