But don't you agree that a return path is only to be used for returning
a message if it can't be delivered, hence 'return path'? I strongly feel
the mailinglistsetups at apache.org and mysql.com are b0rked by calling
out to return paths with a non-null-sender.

This is however a nice idea. I might work that out if i find time ;)
