Is there any documentation on the utility named "header" that is part of the
deliver distribution?  The sample .deliver files show how to make use of
header's -f option, but apparently it has others (-c, -n, and -v or so the
usage message says when you make a syntax error).  What are they for and what
do they do?

It is documented in a fashion in the source code of 'header.c' in the
deliver package.

You could probably find out for yourself with a few easy experiments.
'-c' makes the header name case sensitive;  '-n' prints the header name
in the output.  '-v' reverses the meaning of match as in grep.
