If you have a lot of changes you want to make, you might consider using the

Is there a way to get formail to process multiple consecutive messages in a (Thunderbird) mailbox file? Running it (for me) only processes the first set of headers.

I want to take a mailbox file and strip all but a few headers, leaving those headers and the accompanying text, for the multiple messages contained in the mailbox file.

I thought the -m option might work but I can't work out how to use it with (multiple) -I.

A series of regex replaces would work in BBEdit, but if formail can be persuaded to process a series of consecutive messages, it would be a lot quicker than using regex's in BBEdit.
