Keep that header. It is for your own protection. You don't want to be the last person 
on the list, when somebody uses your webmail interface to send nasty email to The 
President. Your users might not want to be the last on the list, if somebody hijacks 
their account and sends emails on their behalf. If you remove record showing original 
sender, your users can't prove that they haven't sent those emails. SquirrelMail acts 
like any normal email client. It logs originating address. SquirrelMail also logs 
authenticated username and tries to detect proxies.

I know some cases when SquirrelMail was used to send Nigerian scam and similar 
messages. That header provided information about account used to send those messages.

If you still want to remove that information, see patch in SF bugtracker or  edit file 
class/deliver/Deliver.class.php lines 382-401 (SquirrelMail 1.4.3a). 

Remember that you have to set $edit_identity option in SM config to false. This might 
prevent forgery.
conf.pl -> 4. General Options -> 10. Allow editing of identity
