[Noffle-users] can't remove Path

Reading noffle.conf(5) I see path-header can't be set to make no Path
header at all, for those times one just might want to do that.

That's because according to my reading of the RFCs a well-formed article MUST
have a Path header.

5.  Mandatory Headers
                                                                                
   An article MUST have one, and only one, of each of the following
   headers: Date, From, Message-ID, Subject, Newsgroups, Path.

Well, when I post thru gmane.org, mine is thrown away.  And when I
post thru news.individual.net, it even becomes X-Orig-Path:
unknown.local!not-for-mail, not what I gave it.
OK, as I suppose I can't save any bytes in the archives of posterity
by manipulating it... over and out.
