Heh, I see this was a confusing patch. It is a lot clearer to read if
you apply it and then take a look at what's added to sample.mbox, as
well as look at the new files in t5100.

What I did to create this test was add the format=flowed code to
mailinfo (my previous patch email), extract it with format-patch, then
cut/paste it into my MUA and mail it to myself so I could have a sample
format=flowed message. I then added that to the sample.mbox to see if
the code I'd just added to mailinfo was working properly. Yes, it
"de-corrupted" it just fine by removing the flowing.
