I am corresponding with a person whose e-mail routes through
a machine that adds a header of the form

From: vmmail%MACHINE.lots.of.garbage%...

to the message.  What I get is a message with two From: headers -
first the additional one I don't want, and then the original I do
want.

Unfortunately mush chooses the first one as the "From:" it uses.

Is there a way to get mush to see the second one for purposes of
display, reply etc.?  What I do now is edit the message and
insert ">" before the first From: .
