The domain in the "From:" header, or the "Resent-From:" header. The idea
was to "protect" the domain that end users can see in their User Agents.
As you just found out, this can be problematic.

DKIM does away with that, there you can sign with any domain you like,
it does not try to correlate other header content. So DKIM is more
suited for MTA->MTA verification, instead of MTA->MTA->MUA verification
like DK is.
