A few people (myself included) have raised concerns about the
dependence of the PRA algorithm on non-standard header
fields.

If you are referring to the three headers, Delivered-To, X-Envelope-To
and Envelope-To, in my last meeting with the authors of marid-core, it
was agreed to remove them from the algorithm.  With reference to
marid-core-01, you can consider step 3 in section 4 to be deleted.


How much does the removal of these headers change the effectiveness
and false positive rate of the PRA algorithm?
