It is purely cosmetic, as email headers can come in any order.  I just
didn't like seeing these "X-Hashcash" headers coming before "To:" and
"From:" in my outgoing email queue, as it made it harder for me to
review it at a glance.

(I'm honestly not sure how relevant hashcash is for fighting spam these
days.  The answer to that is probably: highly irrelevant.  Yet Emacs
seem to use it by default if the "hashcash" binary is available...)
