The RFCs require that the mail server record a "Received:" line that includes the host
name of the remote machine (as shown in the HELO/EHLO text). All decent mail servers
add the IP address as well, which saves the administrator and the recipient of
unwanted E-mail from having to do extra work to track down the real sender. By
stripping out the IP address, you will be responsible for tracking down users if
needed.
Can I ask why you wish to do strip out the IP address of the sender?
