But those who actually want to keep originals for something

I don't know the answer and even if it is "yes", I don't have a
solution. But I think these things should be discussed, otherwise
the next day somebody will come and implement a switch to rmm or
some other existing nmh command to somehow handle originals together
with the message itself.

Agreed.  I'll reply to Ralph, I like his rmmproc approach.

Sorry, that's probably my poor english grammar. The question I was
wondering about is: Should messages in "preferred form" have headers
like

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

(which I think is the minimum for RFC conform 8bit messages) or should
such headers be stripped. I have come to the conclusion that these
headers are to be present.

I agree, I don't think it's a good idea to strip headers.
mhfixmsg has to modify C-T and C-T-E when it changes the
content, of course.
