Let me write my interpretation of that in pseudo C:
If there's no References: line
{
If there's no In-Reply-To: line
{
No changes
}
else
{
Remove the In-Reply-To: line
}
}
else
{
Remove the References: line
}
This says that if there's neither a References: nor In-Reply-To: line,
change nothing.
If there's no References: line, but there's an In-Reply-To: line,
remove the In-Reply-To: line.
If there is a References: line, remove only it. Any In-Reply-To: line
stays put as do any references that had followed the References: line.
So if the following sequence was encountered:
In-Reply-To: <Ref-A>
References: <Ref-C>
<Ref-B>
<Ref-A>
That block would be changed to:
In-Reply-To: <Ref-A>
<Ref-B>
<Ref-A>
I don't see where it adds the reference from the clip board and I
don't think that what it does makes sense.
