We're actually pretty good at fighting various kinds of malicious email and while I know headers like Received do play a role there, I'm not yet convinced that their role is so fundamental that removing them, or removing essential parts of them, would see these (proactive and reactive) defenses collapse. And I do actually think there is a privacy issue here and that we shouldn't dismiss that right away. However, I agree with others that the proposed charter seems a little premature and that, to quote Dave Crocker, we ought to have "public discussion about the technical aspects of this policy tradeoff" first.
