And recipients who have whitelisted all forwarders are very interested to
make that distinction.

How can a recipient whitelist all forwarders? That seems a daunting task,
and requiring it may hinder setting up new mail servers.

If 'X' is the original sender, and 'Y' is to where a mail was sent,
and 'Z' is where mail eventually ends up:

Y knows whereto it forwards mail. The same person should, at Z, make
sure Y is whitelisted.

And maybe X->Y->Z is not the only path. Perhaps there's also P->Q->Z,
as well as A->B->Z.

Now Y,Q,B are all forwarders to be whilelisted by Z. I think that
is what Michael ment.
