nor does email with the local_part@domain recorded in the Cc: header
field, the (perhaps imaginary) Bcc: header field or one of those exotic
Resent-* header fields that everyone forgets about first time around

that's what Microsoft thought when they invented the Purported
Responsible Address. Be careful not to reinvent their intellectual
property (or indeed to believe that it will get you a long way)

there's lots of resources out there about this stuff... it hasn't taken

those problems then this isn't the place to publish those fixes :(
