Step 2: HELO bob.mta MAIL FROM:<alice> SUBMITTER=<bob> RCPT

At step 2, the receiver can apply spf/HELO tests (or SPF Lite or
CSV or even IP based whitelisting) to bob.mta, and approve the
forwarder based on that.

The receiver can also apply spf/SUBMITTER tests to <bob>, and
approve the forwarder based on that.


Wouldn't this require a PRA check to verify that SUBMITTER is
consistent with the message headers, and wouldn't that be encumbered?


No, SUBMITTER would be compared against the Sender-ID records directly without touching the headers.
