[rt-users] RT-Originator clause in email headers

Hello all,

One of requirements set for our ticketing system is to hide the names of
people who answer tickets by email. So we use "From:" clause in email
templates. However, it doesn't seem to be enough. Even tough "from" email
can be faked, the email header still contains RT-Originator clause with the
real email address the reply is sent from. I greped the entire RT code and
it doesn't seem to me that this RT-Originator clause is really used
anywhere, so I think it can be safely removed from SendEmail.pm.


We run RT 3.2.1
Can anybody confirm that this:

$self->SetHeader( 'RT-Originator',
$self->TransactionObj->CreatorObj->EmailAddress );

can be safely removed from SendEmail.pm (line 440)

Thanks.
Dimitry
