Feature Request – Header Cleanup

[ArcoForzato]

I confirm I have upgraded to the latest GYB release from https://github.com/jay0lee/got-your-back/releases and I still have this issue. I confirm I am typing the command as described in the GAM Wiki at https://github.com/jay0lee/got-your-back/wiki

Full steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Export Inbox:
   gyb --email abc@xyz.com --service-account --action backup
2. Restore Inbox to another account:
   gyb --email archive@xyz.com --action restore --local-folder "C:\GAMADV-XTD3\GYB-GMail-Backup-abc@xyz.com" --service-account --label-prefix "ABC's Emails"

Expected outcome (what are you trying to do?):
Restore ABC's emails to archive@xyz.com

Actual outcome (what errors or bad behavior do you see instead?):

restoring 15 messages (74/28498)
ERROR: 400: Expected a single 'From' header. Skipping message restore.
ERROR: 400: Expected a single 'From' header. Skipping message restore.
restoring 17.1mb message (75/28498)

A Header Cleanup feature would be greatly appreciated!

Also encountering this error restoring while restoring email backed up from a Workplace domain to a gmail.com address.

I am having the same issue
File are from a V10- Folder on an Apple computer
All files were converted from Apple Mbox files to .eml file with partial-emlx-converter
Then I run this command
\Volumes/ServerData/gyb/companyname/gyb --action restore-mbox --label-restored "UserName-Email-Date" --local-folder /Volumes/ServerData/GMail-Backup-UsersName --email email@domain.com --service-account --batch-size 4
I have thousands of .eml files giving the following message:
ERROR: 400: Expected a single 'From' header. Skipping message restore
If you can add a Header Clean up feature that would be appreciated
Thank you for your time and amazing work on GYB

This feature has existed for a while now. See:

https://github.com/GAM-team/got-your-back/releases/tag/v1.55

When --cleanup is specified GYB should detect duplicate headers. I haven't tested but you may need --cleanup-from also.
