Pfizer is absolutely correct. It is an offence under S349 of the companies
act for a company, or anyone working for it, to send a message without the
full company details appearing. Punishment is a hefty fine. There is an
interesting argument that the owner of a software on a listserv that
insists on stripping such data out may be breaking the law.
BTW, the act does not specify WHERE on the message such information need
be placed.
