Why strip headers?

[Ben Finney]

Howdy Tom,

I like the concept of spamitarium; I hope I didn't sound like I was
attacking it. My intention was really only what I summarised in the
Subject field, i.e. to establish why you'd do this.

My Perl is rather rusty, but would you be interested in a patch to
turn this from a binary "all X-Foo or none of them", to a
configuration option which allows:

  - discard all X-Foo (same as the current default)
  - discard all X-Foo and permit the rest
  - permit some X-Foo and discard the rest
  - permit all X-Foo (same as using the current s option)

I don't know if this is something you'd want to implement, since I
probably won't get the chance to do so for a while.
