I have been uising TB for a LONG time. In the past when you set up gmail accounts in TB and sent an email, in the headers you would not see my or the person sending hte emails IP Address.

I tested it this morning and in the headers it shows my ip address. How do you stop this? I really do not want to use gmail as my email client.

Thank you

This is being done by gmail. Google will know your IP, but the headers in gmail show “google” as the sender when you send the email through the web application. If you were to use gmail in a third party email client eg: Thunderbird, and send via gmail SMTP server then yes, gmail will reveal the source IP.

This seems to be a standard practise when using smtp servers, so it's not just gmail. I've got more than one email address using different smtp servers and all of them reveal the IP address of sender and ip address of all the servers it passes through.
