Please can you be more specific about your testing methode. You used e.g. a
Python script for checking?

When you realy checked only the start of lines is not enough. Because in an
mbox mails contain more then one "From" lines. You have to check for "\nFrom "
(Attention! Without the ':').

Side question to the core devs: Which mbox-dialict is really impelemented by
Claws?

To my side: I still can reproduce also with different folders. I used a real
life (not test date) folder with 1309 mails. I imported it into Thunderbird and
got a folder with 505 mails.

I tried the other way arround und imported that mbox file back into Claws (to a
different empty folder). Funny! Claws tells me "Error: Mbox-Import fault"
(translated by me; Original German: "Fehler: Mbox-Import schlug fehl.").

I used Notepadd++ to search for "\nForm ". Exactly 504 counts - the first mail
does not start with a blank line. So in the end there are 505 mails in it.
