And as an administrator I must point out the occasion inevitability that
I must peruse the header of your returned mail in order to debug fouled
up addressing or, (GOD FORBID!) some mistake I may have made in setting
up the connections.

The fact is, e-mail is not intended to be used for confidential
documentation (at this point) and I think it is compassionate
of a company to point that fact out to less sophisticated users.
Please don't try to equate something as trivial as e-mail management
with a something as non-trivial as a company's value on an employee.
