You do realize the header is a maximum of 998 bytes. Even with 10,000 
email you are talking about 10MB of drive space.

With the price of hard drives today being what they are ($70 for a 
250GB, $0.00000028 per MB) I am not sure your point is valid, if your 
point is space consumption.

Personally I think it's spiffy to see the author image on the email 
gives some personality and allows for some creativity.
