That gets rid of the Sender parameter. Sender is automatically validated

domain _really_ send mail in anyone else's behalf anymore, aside from
mailing lists? I can honestly say that I have never sent mail in someone
else's behalf and have never received a non-list message sent in someone
else's behalf. Someone will probably send me one now so that I can't make
that claim anymore :)
This message is an example, though it's me using my facilities at work to
send a message on behalf of me in a personal capacity. (My personal email
domain is hosted at work for testing purposes.) This kind of distinction
between a single user's multiple role addresses is very common.
