It's not forged:

The use of that word, for this situation, is simply incorrect.

And the retention of the original posting's From: string is quite simply
valid.  The fact that it is causing a problem for some add-on technologies
does not, post hoc, render the string invalid.

Perhaps poorly chosen words. But I think most understood the intent.
I'm willing to go from a world where any system can use my From to one
where only the systems I say can. And that means changes.
