Was it intended that if you added a sequence to the 'never show' list that
it not take effect till you stopped and restarted exmh?  I added 'pseq',
then hit 'save' for Preferences - didn't take effect till I restarted.

Actually, this issue used to escalate into a religious war. The "From "
envelope is an artifact of the mbox mailbox format, and from that
perspective it should be the mail server that stores its mailboxes in
mbox format that should be responsible for escaping lines beginning with
"From ". On the other hand, this breaks the assumption that the mail
transport only touches the message headers and leaves the message body
alone.
Things like pgp signatures break when the mail server changes the message
body.
Also, strictly speaking, the mbox format envelope (or for us old-timers,
the UUCP envelope) isn't just any line beginning with "From ". It's really
"From", a single space, a valid email address, two spaces, and a valid
date.
For example:
