I don't think that this is currently included in majordomo, but obviously
resend is the place to put this kind of header molestation since this is
where the current header molesting is done.

This is easy to do. Just set up your database in the list archive directory.
It will then be seen by the 'index' command, and can be retrieved by the
'get' command.

Actually, I like this idea. It would really simplify being able to filter
your mail into different folders. If you get some good ideas, could you
repost them to the list for all to see?
