[comp.mail.mh] Stripping Headers

lou@bern.csmil.umich.edu (Lou Rosenfeld) (01/31/91)

Howdy.  I'd like to know how I can strip out long headers
or specific header fields from messages received through
mh.  Haven't had much luck looking in the man pages.
Thanks in advance for your replies.

PS  I'm a somewhat naive user of unix, so your explicitness
is much appreciated.

If you're just interested in not displaying these headers when you
use "show", you can set up an mhl format file to do this.  Add the
profile entry:

	showproc: mhl

and copy the standard format file (usually /usr/local/lib/mh/mhl.format)
into your MH directory.  Then make changes to your mhl.format; help
is available through "man mhl".
