It *shouldn't* be.  But that doesn't mean it might never leak through.  
  And we can't go munging headers.

You are assuming that sent mail and drafts are static.  They aren't.   
There is no 100% foolproof way of determining whether a message was  
actually sent by IMP or not.

Which leads me back to the previous suggestion: The user has to  
proactively make a choice whether to strip the header out or not.
