So, for exapmle, say I have a forwarding account at

fred(_at_)example(_dot_)net
sends me an e-mail using my example.com address so I would like to
see the following:
(incoming to example.com)
ENV FROM fred(_at_)example(_dot_)net
From: fred(_at_)example(_dot_)net
[other headers irrelevant to example]
(incoming to vocalabs.com)
ENV FROM dtaylor(_at_)example(_dot_)com
From: fred(_at_)example(_dot_)net
This preserves the _meaning_ of the ENV FROM, passes forwarding
information forward, and only involves trusting the most recent hop.
So, am I full of it here, or is this doable?
Sounds reasonable at first but supposing there was a delivery problem
with your work address that resulted in a bounce. That would go to
dtaylor(_at_)example(_dot_)com, which would try to forward to your work
address...
