Peter Honeyman's old motf ("mailer of the future"), which was basically
a cleaned up and enhanced BSD Mail, stripped the "ignored" headers
before saving the message to the files. It didn't have a visual
interface like elm, but I still use it. I don't think it's been
revised since around 1986 (when Peter started to play with Macs), but
it might still be available for anonymous ftp on citi.umich.edu.paul@uxc.cso.uiuc.edu (Paul Pomes - UofIllinois CSO) (04/05/91)

I would like some automagic way of stripping those headers. Some time back I wrote the thdr filter to do just that for mail messages inbound to notesfiles. It uses the regexp package (every program should be a learning experience). Now for the incantation: It's available via anon-FTP from uxc.cso.uiuc.edu in utils/thdr . /pbp -- Paul Pomes UUCP: {att,iuvax,uunet}!uiucuxc!paul Internet, BITNET: paul@uxc.cso.uiuc.edu US Mail: UofIllinois, CSO, 1304 W Springfield Ave, Urbana, IL 61801-2910
