For documentation on the structure of  horde/imp/prefs.dist, that file
refers to horde/config/prefs.php. Horde/imp/prefs.dist contains 'type' =>
'textarea' entries, but horde/config/prefs.php  gives no syntax for their
possible values.

An attempt with $_prefs['mail_hdr']['value'] = "Message-ID\nX-Spam-Level"
has led to a PHP run-time error in horde/imp/message.php on line 340,
which clearly demonstrates that documentation on the configuration syntax
is required.

The correct syntax seems to be: "Message-ID\nX-Spam-Level\n", with "\n"
terminating (not separating) the partial values.
