Just changing the 'subject' isn't enough, several subscribers much
likely sort by 'thread' ('In-Reply-To' and 'References' headers). For
most, if not all MUAs this means you need to compose a new mail. All
mails invoked by a 'reply' option contain this headers, the only way to
get rid of those headers is to compose a new mail, something that is
done, when e.g. using the 'forward' option. However, to continue proper
quoting it's also need to copy and paste from a 'reply' mail. Some MUAs
could be customized by the user, even GUI MUAs. Claws provides
'Actions', so it is possible to simply open a 'reply' mail with an
editor and to remove the unwanted headers, or to do this by a shell
script. I'm still using the copy and paste approach.
