I have not ever had any problem with this.  I save postings to
mailfolders "all the time" successfully.  We'll need more information
from you (or others experiencing this problem).  Are you sure you are
using the correct rn command (or RNINIT option) so that the article is
saved in mailbox format?

Elm2.1 PL1 and elm2.2 PL8 read or read not rn folders depending on the
Daylight-Saving-Time at least in the timezone MET.

If the From lines of the articles in the rn folder contains the word DST,
elm won't read the folder.

e.g.:
From hostname!username Wed May 10 14:33:50 MET DST 1989
					       ^^^
If you erase "DST" in the From lines, both elms read the folder.
