Add X-Originating-IP to outgoing mail

Issue Summary

It seems like good practice to add in X-Originating-IP header in the email identifying the original sender. This will allow the recipient of a mail sent by this module to track down spammers without help from the site admin.

This should be optional via a check box on the configuration form. If you can provide patches to 7.x-1.0 and 6.x-1.x-dev that provide this as an option instead of making it mandatory, I would be inclined to support it. Thanks!

New patch with a checkbox. I think TRUE is a reasonable default - the user is requested to enter his own email address, so he is not under the impression that he is anonymous.
