Sorry, I mean $sender_address and $sender_address_domain ...

So $sender_address and $sender_address_domain are also not set (?)

I just want to have a way to forbid users to forge other users email
address, maybe it can be done on each director/router by comparing
$authenticated_sender with $sender_address, but I don't know if
$authenticated_sender is correctly set by MUA's. I could also make
a query to a database to check that $sender_address or $sender_address_domain
is allowed for $authenticated_id when it's set. But, how could I prevent:
- That users forge the From: address
- That not authenticated clients use a local address as envelope or From:
