When a single message is forwarded by Pine, it comes in the format:


<Forwarding headers>

Text added by forwarder.

---------- Forwarded message ----------

<Original message>


This looks to me like an RFC934 digest (from my quick perusal of the
RFC) without the final (required) encapsulation boundary.

Because of the missing final boundary,
vm-rfc1153-or-rfc934-burst-message is not able to burst such forwards.

I'd like to request the addition of an option to assume that the end
of the message corresponds to the final boundary in such cases; akin
to the vm-mime-ignore-missing-multipart-boundary option for MIME
digests.

TIA.
