I think this could be done similar to `nnmail-fix-eudora-headers': ,----[ (info "(gnus)Washing Mail") ] | `nnmail-fix-eudora-headers' | Eudora produces broken `References' headers, but OK | `In-Reply-To' headers. This function will get rid of the | `References' headers. `---- Would doing the same for Pegasus be sufficient? Could you please provide some sample headers (including X-Mailer or User-Agent, Reply-To and References) for such articles? Would someone like to work on `nnmail-fix-pegasus-headers'?
