I agree that it does help in troubleshooting but I was concerned about exposure of my internal network setup along with machine names being sent out over the net. While this doesn't directly aid in security it would make it more difficult for someone to find out my internal network setup with this information not being broadcasted over the wire on email transmissions.

You really don't want to do this. As a sysadmin with about 20 years experience looking at e-mail headers, the information is absolutely critical in solving many issues, and you do not gain a darn thing ripping them out. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
