Sorry, I misspoke: there's no such thing as Content-Length.
It's Content-Type/boundary that needs to be watched for.  Only consider
that the file is an mbox if a "^From " line appears after the boundary
end marker (which seems to be defined as "the boundary string followed
by two dashes --").

Here's a sample message, BTW:
