Well no one wants to see all the crap in the full headers, so they are almost always turned off, unless there is some problem with getting things through. All kinds of virtual hosting and masqing is so routine, that it doesn't even matter, really. Your ISP and the other mail relays are going to make sure that such things are there anyway, and there's little you can do about it: would you really want to have problems tracing the source of a transport problem (and they do happen)? Save yourself a lot of grief, and leave the mail header munging stuff to the spammers. You'll come to appreciate the extra info with time, when it's needed. Mostly, people will never notice, unless you spam them. If you do screw with the headers enough to keep the spam filters from authenticating your stuff, you will find various sites dropping and bouncing your mail. Without such filters the internet would quickly become unusable, with the flood of trash.
