Invalid, how so?
I looked at one now, and the oldest Received contained "by", "with" and
"id" received-tokens. 5322 says all received-tokens are optional, 5321 says
that SMTP servers MUST add a "from" received-token, but that Received
wasn't written by an SMTP server and 5321 3.7.2 explicitly allows other
software to be different. 2476 says nothing.
What am I overlooking?
In my testing I saw the following sorts of fields:
(webmail)
Received: by lffz202 with SMTP id z202so35306770lff.3 for
<ned(_dot_)freed(_at_)mrochek(_dot_)com>; Wed, 21 Oct 2015 22:32:47 -0700 (PDT)
(submit)
Received: by pasz6 with SMTP id z6so88255027pas.2 for
<Ned(_dot_)Freed(_at_)mrochek(_dot_)com>;

That sure looks like an SMTP server to me so RFC 5321 applies, and I don't see
a "from" clause in there.
