The best I can think of is to use Actions->Forward As->Redirect to
resend them to yourself (*after* setting Evo to "Leave messages on
server"), but you'll still have some header changes. I've never tried
this, but it's easy to test on a couple of messages without making the
situation any worse than it is now.

There's no way of restoring the messages exactly as they were before,
unless you can bribe the server admin :-)
