Given that it is quite easy to restrict them to only being able to send
mail from their authorised address, which is what the OP specifically
asked for, I fail to see the point in only going half the way there.
The complex configuration examples only arose from tangential
speculation about creating very generic solutions that would allow any
kind of arbitrary restriction.
