This hunk differs from the others a bit. I totally agree that removing the (mbox) prefix makes sense, but you're removing (cc-cmd) here, which did carry some information.

I'd write it as

Adding cc: cc-cmd@example.com from --cc-cmd: ./cccmd

It might make sense to split this into two patches: one for (mbox) + headers and one for (cc-cmd) and (to-cmd). Spotting special-cases like the above inside a long patch is hard for reviewers.
