Hm...  I think `rfc822-goto-eoh' does the right thing: It doesn't care
about `mail-header-separator', because that's a user setting for mail
composition buffers, not something that should be consulted after making
that buffer into an RFC2822 mail.

So `mail-sendmail-undelimit-header' should consult that variable, I
think, instead of using `rfc822-goto-eoh'?
