Where do you need the separator for?  It is info which is hidden in the
other header fields.  And besides, if you do

   my $maildir = $mgr->open('maildirfolder');

   my $mboxmsg = Mail::Box::Mbox::Message->coerce($maildir->message(3));
   $mboxfolder->addMessage($mboxmsg);

   # or simply:  (coercion is automatically performed)
   my $mboxmsg = $mboxfolder->addMessage($maildir->message(3));

then
   $mboxmsg->fromLine is automatically created for you from header info
