Not quite sure off-hand how to actually remove a header - perhaps use,

formail -I "Subject: " to remove the subject, i.e. make it blank ...
Ayup. From formail(1):
-I headerfield
Same as -i, except that any existing similar fields
are simply removed. If headerfield consists only of a
field-name, it effectively deletes the field.
Just tried it out, works exactly as expected. You probably _don't_
want to use
formail -I "Subject: "
since that carefully creates a Subject: header (replacing any
already existing one) that contains just a blank. However, if you
use the simpler
formail -I Subject:
it deletes the Subject: header. Seems that the author of formail
didn't particularly consider the whitespace after the : as part of
the header label.
Yes, of course, good point - that'll teach me to post before properly
engaging my brain ... :-)
