[Mimedefang] ENTIRE_MESSAGE not a Mailbox (mbox) file

I have turned on quarantining entire_message for bad filenames and added zip
for a customer that uses zips constantly but is getting inundated with the
newest beagle/bagle, netsky and mydoom.

I was expecting to just do a mutt -f ENTIRE_MESSAGE and bounce it but it
doesn't see it as an mbox file.

I've deduced that it is missing the From line with the date stamp at the
top.

Is there a quick trick (probably something crazy with formail) that you can
run on ENTIRE_MESSAGE to turn it into an mbox with the correct first line so
I can view it with mutt and determine whether to bounce it?

Regards,
KAM
