Hi,
I take it you mean *header* information, ie. all the bits and pieces which say
when the message was sent, the servers through which it was processed,
the mail client that send it etc.
Most of those lines will be OK to supply but one or more lines may (will!) help
identify the sender and most definetely the recipient. I pass no comment if you
should or should not disclose who the sender/recipient are.
If it helps at all.
Charles
