Hypermail does throw information away. It discards any kind of header
that hasn't been told to keep (e.g. Reply-To:), and often alters some
whitespace in in body.
None of which seems very relevant to obfuscating the ids by default, since
it is likely that anyone recreating an mbox would use a tool that knows
how to unobfuscate them (i.e. hypetombox.pl).
