Otherwise, it would seem to be a nice concept.
How does it break mailing-lists? If the list sets the envelope sender to <list-request () listserv domain com> creating a MAIL-FROM shouldn't be a problem. The only problem I can see is what to do about bounces (i.e. with a null envelope sender) - guess you could use header From instead maybe. Martin
