This would not help in cases where the Sender: domain is entirely different from any found in the From: but at least it would address the root concern found in issue 1525.


Within the strict confines of what the current SSP specification is trying to do, I am sorry to say that I actually think this is the best approach and any proposed so far.

It is simple to understand and it eliminates the restriction on which of the authors may post the message.

I say "sorry" because overall it's pretty awkward, but I think the nature of what the current SSP is trying to do mandates awkwardness.
