Headers in a draft are being used for two things. Directives to nmh,
and verbatim headers to hit the wire. In the former, we've Attach, but
also To, CC, etc., as they are examined rather than just passed through
by nmh. I have
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
in my mail/components and I think they're all nmh directives too
inasmuch as it takes note of them? I can plonk `Foo-Bar: Xyzzy 42'
there at the moment and it passes through. Perhaps that's the problem.
Pass through, nmh ignores or doesn't expect, headers should be indicated
in some manner, e.g. colon prefix. Then `Bc: norm' and `Attahc:
/home/ralph/paris.jpeg' aren't going to escape?
Incompatible change, I realise. Just trying to step back a bit and see
why we ended up here.
