I haven't seen a recipe for the "accidentally forward your entire mail file" problem, but if it happens and you don't notice, it's obviously awful, and much worse than the original issue (#9521). My inclination is not to backport the subsequent trunk rmail changes to emacs-24 at this stage, but to revert the 2012-12-29 rmailmm change in emacs-24 (only). Then at least 24.3 will be no worse than 24.1,2, and the new stuff can get more testing in trunk. But I'll defer to you who actually use Rmail.
