I've noticed that, even though RFC7489 appendix C states that the
'envelope_from' element has a minOccurs of '1', this element is missing
quite frequently. This is probably due to the fact that some messages have a
'null reverse-path'. The RFC5321 (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) chapter
4.5.5 allows a 'null reverse-path' ("<>") to be used for non-delivery
notifications, delivery status notifications and message disposition
notifications.

So what to do? Should messages with a null reverse-path be excluded in DMARC
rua reports or should the minOccurs value of the 'envelope_from' element be
changed from '1' to '0'?
