I'm using MHonArc 2.4.9 .

When MHonArc receive a file through stdin and the body contains a line
beginning with a "." MHonArc 2.4.9 always breaks it into two messages.

When From_ is not the first line of a file, MHonArc breaks it into 
two messages. 

If MHonArc sees a "Regards:" line in the body of a message it will 
start a new line.
