"Remove These Headers" in MailScanner.conf

[Martin.Hepworth]

Hmm

Not sure about the read/delivery reciept stuff in there. A lot of people like to spam themselves with this stuff....I know it's a bad idea along with OoO replies but 'user's who need educating may take a dim view.

What do other folk think?
