I realize that UUCP does not strip headers, but it does strip envelope
information.  I am not sure what runs on my provider's side, but I think it is
Taylor.  My side is UUgate/2.

Although I see headers, there is little I can do with them except to make
inferences.  In fact, the reply address that I see on a message is
automatically inferred based on the message headers, not the envelope
information, which is precisely the problem.
