Here's my solution to editing a received message without changing header
date/time.
The following filter writes the message to a text file and then runs a
cmd file (D:\Batch\editmsg.cmd) that opens it in my text editor, and
when the editor is closed re-imports it into the inbox of my account
named "personal". To change the account name, change the parameter at
the end of the line that starts "RunExternal".
The filter is executed by CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-E.
Change to suit your paths and text editor. Note that this is as
automatically converted from a v2 filter to a v3 filter, so it might
benefit from some tuning.
