bug#2074: 23.0.60; Rmail summary does not work

[jpff <jpff@codemist.co.uk>]

Basically it is looking for BABYL format headers which have been
removed.


ALSO

in previous versions of rmail mode the labels were displayed in the
line at the bottom of the window after the mode name, and current
message and number of messages.  There is no such label display now.
