"Reply-To" munging destroys DKIM signatures and therefor should not be a 
separate tunable. But there are situations where I would like to use it.

Because of that I come to the conclusion: What should be done in a 
future version of Mlmmj is to fix the 'delheaders' tunable.

IMO 'delheaders' in the current state is impossible to use right because 
if set it not only deletes the header I want but also does that:

'"From " and "Return-Path:" are deleted no matter what.'

as it is stated the documentation.

Additionally it rewrites the message body and inserts something like 
that (in the body!???), this is the head of the body of a testmail I 
sent to our mailinglist:

This creates a lot of rubbish in the mailinglist, so 'delheaders' is not 
usable!

If I compare Mlmmj to Sympa then Sympa offers the possibility to delete 
any header I want in the incoming mail without rewriting any other part 
of the mail.

This would be the cool way to delete headers!

With that together with the 'customheaders' tunable everybody can do 
'Reply-To:' munging if necessary and a lot of other things.

For instance I wanted to use Mlmmj for a newsletter. Here I would 
replace 'From:' as well as DKIM signatures of the incoming mail.

This is impossible with the current 'delheaders' tunable of Mlmmj.

Alles Gute
