Does anyone have a tool for editing the subject line of a mail-message in

the links to and from the message in the following and previous messages as

I'm omitting, that's why I'm asking this question :-).

If use SUBJECTSTRIPCODE, you can avoid a post-processing step.  I.e.
Modify the subjects as MHonArc processes the messages.

Hi Earl,

I want to be able to easily correct erroneous subject-lines provided by
users. I have no way of knowing in advance what those corrections might have
to be. And the archival of our messages is done immediately the message is
received.

Does anyone have a perl script for this purpose or should I roll my own?

Thanks for your help,
