I'm not the chair, but I've seen considerably less consensus about anything other than rfc2822.from. I'm frankly not sure I understand it very well.

I know I don't understand it!

Maybe a more detailed use-case would help? (Tony?)

There's of course
nothing that prevents a receiver from checking SSP for any address/domain it wants to, but do we now have a mandate to make assertions about any kind of origination address? How do those assertions interact with each other? What does a strong practice for ListID and a weak practice for Sender mean if they're in the same message?

All good questions. And maybe not too easy to be confident in
any answers at this stage?

Finally, is this something that can wait? Ie, are we harmed if we don't do it now?

Again, I dunno. I believe we do have consensus that at least
rfc2822.From needs to be handled now. If more folks want
rfc2822.Sender to be handled now as well, then they should
say so I guess.
