Martin,

As far as I can tell, you GET the headers, like it or not. If you don't want
them, you can:

1. Cut & paste to a text editor.
2. Save the message as-is the edit the saved file.
3. Write a REXX script to remove the unwanted header info from the saved file
from #2.

Limited, but I can't think of any other ideas. :-(
