        Each enclosed message is a conventional message consisting of a
        header and  body, separated by a blank line.  If they exist in the
        original message  header, the following lines must be retained
        as-is in the reconstructed  header: Date:, From:, To:, Cc:,
        Subject:, Message-ID:, and Keywords:,  rearranged to appear in that
        order. Retaining the Summary: line is  optional.  Lines include
        continuation lines as defined in the RFCs.  All other header lines
        should be discarded, especially Received lines.  All  leading and
        trailing blank lines should be removed from the message body.  The
        message body may be scanned to replace with a blank the first
        character  of any lines of exactly and only 30 hyphens.

Great!  What's an example of one?
