See the settings MIME_DIGEST_KEEP_HEADERS and PLAIN_DIGEST_KEEP_HEADERS
in defaults.py.

You can copy PLAIN_DIGEST_KEEP_HEADERS omitting Message-ID and
Content-Type and put the rest in mm_cfg.py. E.g.

PLAIN_DIGEST_KEEP_HEADERS = [
    'Message', 'Date', 'From',
    'Subject', 'To', 'Cc',
    'Keywords',
    ]

Do not remove Content-Type from MIME_DIGEST_KEEP_HEADERS as that will
destroy the MIME format of the digest. People should only be selecting
the MIME format digest if their MUAs understand MIME (these days
almost all do) in which case they won't be seeing the actual
Content-Type header anyway.
