It's a bit difficult to determine what the user wants, really.  For
instance, if the user removes the From header, a new one has to be
generated, and is probably what the user wants.  If the user removes
the References header, the user probably doesn't want to have the
header re-generated.

Perhaps the fix would be to not re-generate the optional headers if
they are removed?

I've now done so.
