They are all most certainly text files.

Yes. In
!StrED_cfg.UserPrefs.Modes.News.ModeWhen
I have exactly that:
Match
_newstest ** ( < "From:")
_newstest ** ( < "#! rmail")
End
this causes Hewmes spooled incoming mail to open in News Mode but does
nothing for the server-saves emails as they don't contain the start flag.

I put the second line in way, way back it's in a file dated 2011. A search
of the archives reveals I asked about News ModeWhen then.
That 2011 file also has
_newstest ** ( < "Envelope-to")
So the #! rmail test works even with 3 tests here.

That was my other thought - but I thought first to enquire why the
supplied test did not work.
<All the saved files get downloaded to
Transient$TodayDir>.Spam.mail
Buy of course if I look at a file not today, ideally it should open
properly as News too.
I presume ModeWhen files are searched first and if no match occurs,
BaseMode is used?
