In any case, surely this check would be optional.
I hope not, then it makes rmail not usable for most users.
What is wrong with using real local variables? Either by adding it to
the first message, or always adding "-*- rmail -*-" to X-RMAIL-...?
That way a user could disable rmail explictly for a file, or enable it
by adding -*- rmail -*- to it. This would then work exactly as it did
for RMAIL/BABYL. Without adding specifc rmail hacks to other parts of
emacs.
I like this approach.
Xavier
