+@cindex Babyl files
+@cindex mbox files
Rmail was originally written to use the Babyl format as its internal
format. Since then, we have recognized that the usual inbox format
(@samp{mbox}) on Unix and GNU systems is adequate for the job, and so
since Emacs 23 Rmail uses that as its internal format. The Rmail file
is still separate from the inbox file, even though their format is the
same.
+@c But this bit should stay in some form.
+@vindex rmail-mbox-format
+(In fact, there are a few slightly different mbox formats.
+The differences are not very important, but you can set the variable
+@code{rmail-mbox-format} to tell Rmail which form your system uses.
+See that variable's documentation for more details.)

When getting new mail, Rmail first copies the new mail from the

excluded from the @samp{CC} field. They are also excluded from the

To omit the @samp{CC} field completely for a particular reply, enter

coding system, the result should be readable.
+@vindex rmail-file-coding-system
+ When you get new mail in Rmail, each message is translated
+automatically from the coding system it is written in, as if it were a
+separate file. This uses the priority list of coding systems that you
+have specified. If a MIME message specifies a character set, Rmail
+obeys that specification. For reading and saving Rmail files
+themselves, Emacs uses the coding system specified by the variable
+@code{rmail-file-coding-system}. The default value is @code{nil},
+which means that Rmail files are not translated (they are read and
+written in the Emacs internal character code).
