Apologies for giving this a gentle nudge, but still confused as to where the
headers are going / what's causing them to be removed and hoping someone may
have some insight.
Thanks,
Matt

Subject: [Dovecot] Received header only showing localhost
Hi all,
I?m a new dovecot user and a first-time poster so please forgive me if this
is a stupid question, or even (as I suspect it might be) not really a
Dovecot question.
My system is the fairly typical mix of postfix, amavis-new, and Dovecot. For
some reason I?ve noticed that when I look at the mail headers for delivered
messages the Received header is missing the detail of any external servers
that the mail went through, and additionally the tag appears twice; for
example the ?Welcome to the dovecot mailing list? email has:
Received:?from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1])
????by droplet.the-wyvern.net (Postfix) with ESMTP id DDDD163F73
????for <myname at mydomain.net>; Mon, 26 Aug 2013 16:40:19 +0000 (UTC)
Received:?from droplet.the-wyvern.net ([127.0.0.1])
????by localhost (droplet.the-wyvern.net [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port
10024)
????with ESMTP id 6AFMiG0TAHUv for <myname at mydomain.net>;

Searching through the dovecot.markmail archive I can see this doesn?t seem
to be too unusual in that there are other examples where folk have posted
message headers with the above format, however I?m wondering if there?s a
good reason for it and if I can turn it off? I quite like being able to see
where my mail came from :)
If there?s a man / wiki page to read somewhere that explains it then please
feel free to tell me to RTM (.. long as you also point me in the right
direction :p )
Thanks,
Matt
