Absolutely, you can send a more standards compliant header which some
servers may require. Michael Kann thinks that posting the header first
makes any difference which I doubt: it appears that way because of the
double empty space between the header and body. Make sure you have a
crlf after each line in the header and double crlf between the header
and body.

Interarchy allows you to uncheck any "stuff" you don't want to see: the
minimum is data in ascii and hex (on the left side).
