I've looked at the 'w' flag before. It seems that the phrase is not passed to
the matching rule when it's used, but the rewritten address overwrites the
original phrase/address combination, thus allowing you to generate a phrase,
but not one based on the original. That's the way it seems to me, at least.
The phrase might be available in a $rheader_.*: expansion though?
I think fixing nmh is going to be the answer here, now. Even if I can get
to the phrase via a $rheader_.*: expansion, looping through them to test/fix
each phrase is probably going to be tricky to get right and is probably more
easily fixed in the nmh code (where it should be done anyway, I guess).
Thanks for your message.
