   A feature I would like to see in the next VM (currently using 5.32
   Beta) is a way to strip out the headers from a forwarded message.  For
   example, now when forwarding a message, you get:

   ------- Start of forwarded message -------
   Status: RO
   X-VM-v5-Data: ([nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil]
           ["237" "Tue" "21" "April" "92" "20:54:44" "edt" "Gregory N. Shapiro" "gshapiro@sparkplug.wpi.edu" nil "15" "Phone numbers" "^From:" nil nil "4"])

   Blah blah blah
   ------- End of forwarded message -------

   I would like to reduce it to:

   ------- Start of forwarded message -------
   From: gshapiro@sparkplug.wpi.edu
   To: gshapiro@sparkplug.wpi.edu
   Subject: Phone numbers
   Date: Tue, 21 Apr 92 20:54:44 edt

   Blah blah blah
   ------- End of forwarded message -------

I think this would be a fixed bug rather than an additional feature.
Who is interested in "X-VM-v5-Data:" and "Received:" lines?
A truly additional feature I would like to see is something like ELM's
"bounce" command. It is essentially the same as forwarding, but without
editing the original message. Even the subject and sender remains the same.
So it appears to the final recipient as if he got the message from the
original sender instead of an intermediate agent (namely me).
