What about mailing lists that have different sender and

I know only two kinds of mailing lists, Sender = "Mail From"
and Errors-To = "Mail From", both with "Mail From" list owner.
What do you have in mind ?
 
Please provide a precise reference to that prohibition.

Already discussed in mxcomp, e.g. in the thread starting with
<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.ietf.mxcomp/5453>

The forwarder would add its FQDN to the reverse path, and it
takes the resposibility for the delivery.

the path form of email addresses was deprecated by RFC1123

Good news for the poor author of RfC 2821, it was really not
all his fault - but I never thought that it was.  Bye, Frank
