Really? Let's see:

Looks like some guy named 'suresh' wrote this message, with an email
address of <mallet@???>.

Yep---definitely. And not only do we have another email address for
him, but an actual address and telephone number as well:
$ whois hserus.net |grep -A 5 'Contact:'

He's probably reachable via some address @hserus.net as well.
All in all, that doesn't look particularly harmless to me.

So what's the point of your remailer? It's like disguising yourself by
wearing a hat, or by wearing a nametag that reads, "Hello, my name is
Xavier," when it's really Yvonne or Zebedee. Neither fools people who
know what you look like....
