Post process.  Or modify MHonArc code.

Careful with post-processing; you do not want to mangle message-ids.

MSG ID's seems a specious case as all the MSG ID's would be
identically munged, retaining referential correctness.  A possibly
more signigicant concern is that the post processing resets the time
stamps on the touched files, removing (potentially) MHonArc's Date:
header based time stamping.  This can screw some search tools.
