If you want to provide the historical chain of development, you'll
have to start with RFC 1341 for MIME. Mail routing is covered in RFC
974. There's also RFC 1123 which updates or annotates portions of RFC
821 to conform to current usage (at that time). RFC 1123 discouraged
all source routing and tried to abolish explicit source routing for
mail delivery.
I think Dave is aware of that as he was in the room when that text was
written (I was one of the people writing it).
