I guess I did not see it as complicated. But this was before you
said the message was base 64 encoded. But I would use a sed script
file, not the command line.

Remove the forwarding header by matching the start/finish as an
address range. Delete that range.

For me, it would be:

/Delivered-To:/,/-------- Original Message --------/d
