Not to add too much confusion, let us not forget that CAN SPAM uses the term
"sender" solely for what is referred below as "author".

There are several problems with this:

1. Can-Spam is but one country's law and choice of terminology.

2. Their particular vocabulary has not seemed to have much effect on anyone else's choices.

3. The problem with that particular word's ambiguity in general, anti-spam discussions, is not small. We really do need a tiny number of easily remembered and used terms that make important distinctions.

#3 is the main issue, as I see it.
