No, that's a formatting mistake in the wiki. I fixed it, thanks.
The last character in that line should be =
(no domain specified).

Possibly, "domain=" (with empty domain) acts the same as "sender_retain".
I'm not sure. I use "domain=" because I saw that in Exim config in cPanel
in shared hosting where I was a user before switching to VPS.

Some honest users need to send mail with "From:" and envelope-from
different from $authenticated_id . For example, *-owner @ yahoogroups.com,
@ ieee.org - they don't offer outgoing relay, only incoming forwarder.
