Since you keep sending this same question over & over & no one else
is answering, I'll pass on a couple of comments:
A- If you really want to hide that information, use FirstClass on a
Mac or NT box. Or better yet, QuickMail 1.x with StarNine Internet
Gateway.
B- Judging from a quick & extremely unscientific survey of headers in
various incoming emails on my laptop, it appears that whether or not
the sender's IP appears in the Received: header is dependent on some
combination of client & server, & further that it is by no means
restricted to Qmail.
I'll refrain from commenting on whether suppressing the sender's IP
info would actually be desirable.
