But the emails aren't threaded ;)

Without doing as somebody suggested, and getting a third party involved,
you cannot "turn them off".  I'd still love to know how these reference
headers are making your friends paranoid... they don't contain any
information that may be useful to viruses (message IDs don't contain the
posters full email address, TB isn't susceptible to the common viruses
such as Klez etc, so there is another possibility out the window).  If
it is just them that are panicking about a harmless header, then they
should maybe see about contacting their mail administrator to drop the
header on the server, where it'll affect everybody.  Unfortunately they
are heavily used on this list, and in some cases, a lot of other lists
as well.
