--- Comment #7 from Jeremy Harris <jgh146exb@???> ---
As the long comment in deliver.c says, at "Furthermore (2)", this behaviour is
deliberate so that VERP can be supported. I think the patch as written will
break that.

We could complexify the return_path evaluation; at present it is done in
deliver.c and would have to be moved into the smtp driver; if we didn't do
the same for all other transports then remote and local would be assymetric.

It's not clear that the change is worthwhile. Closing on that basis; please
reopen if you feel strongly that TCP connection setup overhead is important.
