Tweak description of PortableUnixMailbox: "From " lines are actually

quoted (or mangled) *at* delivery-time, not "well before" it. (At least
that's how Exim and qmail work.)

Clean up some markup cruft. A number of the macros that take no
...
parameters (like \UNIX) are commonly entered using an empty group to
separate the markup from a following inter-word space; this is not
needed when the next character is punctuation, or the markup is the
last thing in the enclosing group. These cases were marked
inconsistently; the empty group is now *only* used when needed.

Adjustments to the text of the UnixMailbox description. Added

PortableUnixMailbox as a separate class as well (this also generates
the right index entry).

Document the two changes to the mailbox.py module:
...
- All constructors grow an optional argument `factory' which is a
callable used when new message instances are created by the next()
methods. Defaults to the rfc822.Message class.
- A new subclass of UnixMailbox is added, called PortableUnixMailbox.
It's identical to UnixMailbox, but uses a more portable test for
From_ delimiter lines. With PortableUnixMailbox, any line that
starts with "From " is considered a delimiter (this should really
check for two newlines before the F, but it doesn't.
