The problem is, sometimes is handy to be able to add a mail header in the "pseudo-header" section, and have it moved to mail header when sending the report. For example X-Debbugs-CC. If I have to leave all those files in the pseudoheader section without moving them, then there would be a kind-of regression. So, I decided to force those p.h. to be left in the p.h. section only if specified on the command-line, and keep doing the same filtering (if the field is recorded in the p.h. list of headers) and move the other fields to mail headers if specified in the mail text.

For example X-Debbugs-CC. This is no longer useful, since X-Debbugs-* can be used as pseudo-headers, nowadays. > If I have to leave all those files in the pseudoheader section without > moving them, then there would be a kind-of regression.

But Forwarded: _is_ a legitimate pseudo-header. At the same time, the Forwarded: mail header: * had never been official * had been obsoleted 30 years ago * had never been intended to be inserted by humans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Package: reportbug Version: 4.8 Severity: normal Reportbug moves a user-provided Forwarded: pseudo-header to the mail header (which has quite a different meaning).
