Once the mailbox is fixed, I recommend using mutt, not procmail, to
remove unwanted headers.  For example, in my .muttrc I have :



################################################################################
# Headers config:

# I can get rid of the extra headers !!!!
ignore *
unignore From: To: Date: Cc: Reply-To: 
unignore User-Agent: X-Mailer: List-Id: X-Mailing-List: X-No-Cc:
unignore Mail-Followup-To:

# I can order the headers the way I want
hdr_order From Date To Cc User-Agent X-Mailer Reply-To Mail-Followup-To X-No-Cc List-Id X-Mailing-List

#
################################################################################


In reality it doesn't remove the headers, they are still in the
mailbox, but you don't see the ones you don't want in your pager which
is the whole purpose.
