There are no significant privacy ramifications in the User-Agent 
header.  And removing Received headers is a BAD IDEA.  Both of these 
make tracking abusive e-mails *more* difficult.



If an admin wants to block (not recommended), they can edit the code 
as the like.  But this is not something that will (or should) be made 
available via an admin interface.

Hi,

it would be great if there would be an option to override (or block) 
the agent header in outgoing mails. Furthermore an option to hide the 
first "Received" header should also increase privacy. I think these 
options should be configurable though admin interface, because I think 
some admins may not want to hide those informations.



The following little hack shoud do the work, but is not as advanced as 
described above:

File: /user/share/horde3/imp/lib/MIME/Headers.php

After line: "class IMP_Headers extends MIME_Headers {"

Add this: "function addReceivedHeader() { } function addAgentHeader() { }"
