Hi!

I would like to hide info that Domino inserts in emails going out of company. We have two servers on the path and first one inserts this:

X-Mailer: Lotus Notes Release 6.5.3 September 14, 2004

and the other one this:

X-MIMETrack: Serialize by Router on MyServer/Acme/EE(Release 7.0|August 18, 2005)

Just one thing - stripping X-Mailer is a bad idea. Many spam filtering systems give a high weighting to messages with no X-Mailer header and this may cause deliverability issues for your users.

It may be that recent releases have added greater control over SMTP headers, but large organisations have typically done this by deploying a Unix/Linux relay between their Domino environment and the outside world. Sendmail is the standard Unix SMTP server, but I believe Postfix is particularly suited to the kind of inline modification you appear to want (and much more).
