Where? You'll have to give us a precise reference because I can't find
one. I can see some comments about source routes which have been
deprecated since before RFC 1123 in 1989, but this is unrelated to
forwarding.
Oh right, you can claim inside "RFC 2821", I have to spell out
the exact position? Well, for instance 3.4 talks about security.
3.10 may apply here as well.
Last but not least: The _senders_ policy explicitly forbids it.
If senders don't want their email forwarded then they shouldn't send email
to anyone who will forward it.
Right. I will not send mail to
"mail_to_user_at_yourdomain(_dot_)org_is_forwarded_somewhere_else(_at_)yourdomain(_dot_)org"
anymore. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
Sorry for the sarcasm but it really is your problem, not mine.
You are providing the service, not I.
