Yes as you can see the email client and its version number, the OS are 
gone and the variable 0.0.0.0 (not sure why) is now "localhost".

Am still using an OS setting to change the timezone as TZ didn't work on 
the "sent at" time, just the received times.

Obviously, I now need to see the pop3 and smtp protocols and see what 
they can also leak, I am using the term "leak" in the sense that most 
Tor users would use it.. any output of de-anonymising  information.
