Aw, you ruined it... it was much funnier when it was just empty.

Wow... that's the first time I've seen a MESSAGE in a header 
(Content-Transfer-Encoding??). I've seen people muck with the 'from' 
headers, but nothing like this. It looks like it's either unintentional 
(broken mailer?), or ...maybe just a way to get around spam filters 
(though not a very effective one)?

I wish Thunderbird let me pick which headers to display. Guess sometime 
I'll have to find the motivation to build my own copy (even if 
maintaining a patch is a total PITA).
