Hi,

I'd like to resend some saved emails, i. e. files, which also contain heade=
r lines, etc.

My best approach so far is:

blat mailBody.txt -q -noh2 -server smtp -nomps -f [email protected] -bcc re=
[email protected] -ss -raw

Having a look at the server communication with wireshark, blat always adds =
these additional headers:


Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2020 16:15:48 +0200

From: [email protected]

Message-ID: <01d674a0$Blat.v3.2.17$e7df4362$4bd83b20145e@smtp>

In case mailBody.txt already contains headers like Date, From and Message-I=
D (which is true in my case), some mail servers refuse the message e. g. du=
e to multiple Date headers.

It would be nice, if blat could be instructed to not add any headers, e. g.=
 by a new option -rawonly.

On the other hand, it would be even nicer to have finer control about which=
 headers are added in raw mode.
Like -ss suppresses the Subject header, maybe -fs, -ds and -ms could contro=
l suppressing From, Date and Message-ID headers.

Thanks in advance.

Bye.
