bug#4140: 23.1.50; Fail to CC with `Message MML'

[bob@rattlesnake.com (Robert J. Chassell)]

    Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
    usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

    Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org
    mailing list.

    Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
    and the precise symptoms of the bug:

In yesterday's CVS Emacs, with `emacs -Q -D', I failed to CC to
bob@benthic.rattlesnake.com with `Message MML' in the mode line
although a post succeeded that was sent via fp.gnu.org, which had
Emacs 22 on it.  (The system administrators may have updated it to 23
this morning; that is when Debian testing had the released Emacs 23).
The Emacs 22 I sent the successful email on said `Mail' in the mode
line.

I may have something wrong in my /var/mail/ directory, but I have not
changed it for a very long time; certainly, I have not changed it
since Emacs 22.
