Further to Tet's comments re 01010101 sequences,  all I can say is that in the
many years we have been receving email we have never seen any messages where
this sequence occurs within the body of a mail, so the delimiting of messages
using this sequence works absolutely fine.
MMDF allows you to define the delimiting sequence of characters, so hex 01 02 03
04 could be used just as easily.
It just seems a better scheme to me than looking for 'From '  !!
