That certainly was the goal. Richard made a suggestion which I will
implement shortly that automagically check for an existing Rmail/babyl
formatted PMAIL file which it will then convert to mbox format. This
will make trying out Pmail event easier.

Good idea. Done. I committed the info directories just because
Rmail/mbox has a history of people working on it and then disappearing
(including myself) for years at a time. So I wanted to have some
mechanism, albeit temporary, to capture what was done and not done to
bring Rmail/mbox up to date.
