mbox: Clarify protocol version negotion The specification intended that the mbox daemon return its highest supported protocol version less-than-or-equal to the version requested by the host. This was not clear in the documentation and was not the behaviour implemented by the daemon. Fix both the documentation and the daemon to perform to this expectation.
