True, but to achieve the goal of the origination of this thread, you don't need 
to remove a Received line.. You just need to generate one without a "from" clause.

You're not an idiot, just lost in the noise of the thread.

The header from the original post is:
_______________________________________
Received: from [10.0.0.175] (pc1 [10.0.0.175])
by smtp.vvv.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6EBF7A75C7
     for <aaa at mail.com>; Tue,  5 Feb 2008 14:16:09 +0100 (CET)

Which you could, in theory, sanitize by not generating a from clause at 
smtp.vvv.net.
