From your note I thought you didn't know about the spec.  (No, that doesn't seem like a reasonable believe on my part, but I'm still working on my second cup of coffee.)


In shorthand terms, Author is the opposite of Sender.  In the existing Sender 
paradigm From is constant, the mediator would add Sender, which would result in 
sent by Sender on behalf of From.  Under this proposal the originator includes 
both From and Author, the mediator mangles From and the result could be sent by 
From on behalf of Author.  Is that right?

One of the reasons I pointed to the draft is that it discusses the history and semantics of Sender vs. From and makes the case the DMARC forces From to be Sender, but not really From any more. Author seeks to recover a purely From semantic.
