When I specify "Remove These Headers = X-Mozilla-Status: X-Mozilla-Status2:" in MailScanner.conf, everything works fine (i.e. headers /are/ removed as should be), however, when I specify a filename (such as "Remove These Headers = %rules-dir%/RemoveTheseHeaders", no headers whatsoever are being removed.

Try renaming RemoveTheseHeaders to RemoveTheseHeaders.rule
Then it should spot that you are putting in a ruleset filename. Without
that, there is no way to distinguish between the name of a header and
the name of a ruleset file.
