RE: towards a compromise

   o  For 2821, we will either pick HELO or MAIL FROM, but 
not both as 
they have different meaning.  In the case of a null MAIL FROM, the 
receiver has the choice to abandon the MARID check or drop 
back to 2822 checking.

Someone please explain why checking HELO, in case of _null_ MAIL FROM, is a
bad idea.

Otherwise, I really like the acknowledgement that the receiver will decide
which identity to verify.
