What about programming it in such a way that you can get the number of 
results that match your criteria, then that would allow you to parse 
through the headers that match, and then you can filter out the ones you 
want.

I'm thinking about how the DUNDIQUERY() and DUNDIRESULT() functions work 
(see them for more information about the syntax I'm using below). Here 
is a little dialplan code that would go through, get the number SIP 
headers that started with P-, check if the value of the header was 
'sip:foo at bar', and if so, remove that header. If not, then move onto the 
next header, until no more exist.

    Set(HEADER_RES=${SIP_HEADER_QUERY(P-)})
    Set(HEADER_COUNT=${SIP_HEADER_RESULT(${HEADER_RES},getnum)})   ; 
(Result returns say 2)



    Verbose(2,Removing all headers starting with P- and a value of 
sip:foo at bar)
    Set(X=1)
    While($[${HEADER_COUNT} <= ${X}])
    Set(CURRENT_HEADER=${SIP_HEADER_RESULT(${HEADER_RES},${X})})
    ExecIf($["${CURRENT_HEADER}" = "sip:foo at bar"]?SIPRemoveHeader(P-,${X}))
    Verbose(2,${IF($[${CURRENT_HEADER}" = 
"sip:foo at bar"]?Verbose(2,Header removed:No header modification))
    Set(X=$[${X} + 1])
    EndWhile()
    Verbose(2,Headers removal complete)
