this from the gmail help:

User IP addresses

Protecting our users' privacy is something we take very seriously. IP 
addresses can be considered sensitive information. As such, sender IP 
address information is not displayed in Gmail outgoing mail headers.

Don't worry -- we aren't enabling spammers to abuse the system by not 
revealing IP addresses. Gmail uses many innovative spam filtering 
mechanisms to ensure that spammers have a difficult time sending bulk 
emails that arrive in users inboxes.
