storage of one user

* converts mbox files in DOS format (CRLF) to Unix file format
* can strip an extension (e.g. ".mbx") from a mailbox name prior to converting
* removal of dummy message that a couple of IMAP servers (e.g. UW-IMAPD) put at
the beginning of a mailbox
* setting the file date of a converted message according to the date found in
the "From " line of the original mail
* setting the flags F,R,S,T (flagged, replied, seen, deleted) on the filename
