Default Email header info, should I cover my tracks?

No I don't plan on doing anything illegal but I also don't want a breach in my network or worst an outbreak of spam/worms causing havoc to other users in the world.

My header info shows up in emails like the two examples below with lan addresses and internal DNS info.

*=sensitive info

Should I be concern? Is this normal when you have a split dns and using an external smtp server through your ISP?

Is there anything I need to do or should do?
