 This is a perfectly correct attitude, thanks!

 Yes, I tend to agree... I think we should indeed have a possibility to
save just the shown headers however this is not completely trivial to do
whereas saving all headers is, so for now I've changed SaveMessagesToFile()
to save it with all the headers.

 I'd like to do some advertisement for a slightly related feature I added
some time ago and which I already can't live without: the possibility to
reply to multiple messages. AFAIK no other mail client has this feature and
it's simply great as before if I wanted to reply to 2 or 3 messages in a
thread simultaneously I had to open 3 composers and then manually cut and
paste text around. Now I simply select all the messages and press 'R' --
and I really like it. Hopefully the others will as well!
