Sorry for the Novice question but I don't see a FAQ file.  The only way
I can see to copy a mail message to a file is by cutting and pasting to
another buffer, which seems clumsy.  The 'o' command just copies it to
an RMAIL format file ... I receive documents by mail and need to copy
them without the RMAIL garbage.

Regular UNIX mail seems easier in this respect.
