I do not manipulate From: nor any other (address) header by
that way on incomming mails, nor from wild, nor from users.

But i use ${address:...} expansion to extract address from
Sender: and From: headers (forced to one address) on MSA
to check, that users use only allowed address, to prevent
spoofing. I do that test(s) after syntax verifying, but now i
see that it is not reliable, just because MUA (expected) &
exim can do it wrong...

I did expensive testing of that checks, but the case of
invalid syntax which pass syntax verifying was not
included...
