Yup.  There's a gazillion ways subject headers can be mangled, and it's
pretty odd of an Emacs mail user agent to do one particular obscure
fix-up just because it's one mangling that Emacs maintainers have to
deal with.

What if there's users out there that really want to see that [EXTERNAL]
thing, because their incoming MTA adds it, and it's corporate policy to
have those markings on mail that arrives from outside?  Suddenly they
get a stern talking-to from HR.
