NamePros.Com - View Single Post - PHP mail function

Hey everyone,

I'm messing around with the php mail function and I noticed that when you look at the properties of the message that was sent there are headers with a ton of information. Some of this information shows my cpanel login and server info. I use Hostgator hosting.

Should I be concerned with this or is this pretty normal? I've been doing some research on using something else to send e-mails but I don't yet understand these of if they are neccessary.

As always, thanks for the help!
