In GNU Emacs 18.55.6 of Mon Jun 25 1990 on icule (usg-unix-v)

If I attempt to call rmail on a directory, then dired is first called,
followed by a `converting to Babyl format' message.  The process does
not always complete, but this might well be another problem, which I
am not addressing now.  Calling rmail on a directory is meaningless;
GNU Emacs should help me not to do this.
