I have found a bug in fill.el for versions 18.58 and 18.59.  
When filling an included message in rmail, the header should
be left untouched, as it was in version 18.57.  The newer 
versions fill the header as well as the message body.

The fix for this is as follows:

   diff -r1.1 fill.el
   219c219
   <	     (while (looking-at "[^ \t\n]*:")
   ---
   > 	     (while (looking-at "^[ \t\n]*[^ \t\n]*:")
