The impact of this problem can be reduced by making the match for the
header start line more strict. Still doesn't fix all cases (where there
is a line in the mail body which represent a mail header start line),
but such cases should be escaped by the mail client (by adding a
backslash in front of "From" or by inserting a space in the empty line
before the line starting with "From).

Please test the attached patch for it's impact on execution time. The
match string could be still shortened (to something like
/From\s+\w+(\.\w+)*@/ which still matches most cases).

Leonard.
