That probably is quite enough, except its a little more complex than
that:-
- Masking header addresses is no problem (well its easier than
the other things)
- Howabout quoted addresses? You can't just strip them
completely - a reply to a query stating that discussions
of this problem can be found on the xxx-list at (address)
are going to be a pain if the information has been masked
- The exim list gets log fragments to it containing email
addressing information - masking that could make the logs
rather less than useful :-)
- I think a compromise is to just mask email addresses,
where they are defined as text@text or similar, not
cover real names, and live with the fact that quoted
reference lines, message ids and logs will be damaged
too...
