I have found this addressing in RFC 5321 too (4.1.1.11):
Reverse-path = Path / "<>"
Path = "<" [ A-d-l ":" ] Mailbox ">"
A-d-l = At-domain *( "," At-domain )
; Note that this form, the so-called "source
; route", MUST BE accepted, SHOULD NOT be
; generated, and SHOULD be ignored.
Mailbox = Local-part "@" ( Domain / address-literal )
however the format of <@do.ma.in> is still invalid, since it must be
followed by :a...@re.ss
