OTOH, having the additional space in the output won't hurt, because ":"
is the list separator and exim strips the whitespace around the ":"
anyway, doesn't it?.

    |From: hans
    |To  : peter
    |Received: from me
    |   by you
    |   for him
    |Subject: nix


'${lc:${sg {$message_headers_raw}{\N(?m)(^\S+\s*:)?.*?\n\N}{\$1}}}'

    from:to  :received:subject:message-id:date:


So I'd say, it's for our purpose ok. (Or the other alternatives,
just stripping away the part following the first ":".)

We're hunting the 100% solution just for fun ;)
