Re: how to hide e-mail header information?

["SB CH" <chulmin2 () hotmail com>]

First so sorry for bothering you.
But I'm not a spammer just but security engineer of the company.
and I have read this article to stop spam at mail server.

http://www.stopspam.org/email/headers/headers.html

at this article, written like this.

"Another trick used by forgers of email, this one increasingly common, is 
to add spurious Received: headers before sending the offending mail. This 
means that the hypothetical email sent from turmeric.com might have 
Received: lines that looked something like this: 

Received: from galangal.org ([104.128.23.115]) by mail.bieberdorf.edu 
(8.8.5)...
Received: from nowhere by fictitious-site (8.8.3/8.7.2)...
Received: No Information Here, Go Away!

Obviously, the last two lines are complete nonsense, written by the sender 
and attached to the message before it was sent. "

I just would like to know how this way is possible. Because I think that 
security relaters should know about the attack way well to defence the 
attack or fake etc.

Again, I'm not a spammer.


Thanks in advance.
