i probably do not want to strip Sender: from mail received from other hosts.

you have a taste for cruft. :-)

nope. i am getting Sender: on mail originated by my mua, and did not with
smail. e.g.
Return-path: <randy@???>
Received: from randy by rip.psg.com with local (Exim 3.03 #1)
id 11Qqf3-00077g-00
for randy@???; Tue, 14 Sep 1999 04:22:09 -0700
Message-Id: <E11Qqf3-00077g-00@???>
Sender: Randy Bush <randy@???>
From: Randy Bush <randy@???>
To: randy@???
Subject: test
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 1999 04:22:09 -0700
test
and note that it is revealing my hostname, which is most annoying.
also, it added the local hostname to the To: which was originally only
"randy".

say my outbound mail gateway is gw.psg.com, and i send outbound mail either
from it or from some internal host ih.psg.com. to the outside world, i do
not want the hostnames visible (except in Received: and Message-Id: lines),
only psg.com.
