You seem to understand the problem, but what makes you claim this
forwarding is "wrong"?  RFC2821 explicitly permits it.

That RFC even describes it as common, and it's a lot more common than
most people on this list seem to realize, especially this time of year
when thousands of university students have their school address
forwarded to their home address or some temporary summer address.
