 If you were going to take the "keep only these" approach rather than
 the "delete these" approach, you'd have to keep more than Subject:.

If you're going to be serious about anonymizing something, you have no choice but to strip everything but certain specific headers that you know to be clean.


 You'd also need to keep  Mime-Version:, Content-Type:
 Content-Transfer-Encoding: and probably Message-Id: (although this may
 reveal the originating domain), In-Reply-To: (for proper archive
 threading), References: and Date:.

You would certainly have to remove "Message-Id:" and regenerate locally on the anonymizing mail server. I'd have to talk to certain people I know in the anonymous remailer community to see which others would also have to be removed, and find out the reasoning behind that.
