Abstract
An electronic messaging system and method with reduced traceability. An electronic message is separated into a message content and container (header) information. In one aspect, the message content and header information are entered by a user separately using a single display image screen having separate portions for entry of message content and header information. The separate portions do not allow visibility of content in the portions to be displayed at the same time.
