No, they've 'mangled' the envelope sender, which is what SRS requires them to do. > My definition of > the sender is the ORIGINAL sender. I want to know, for example, if it was a > yahoo message.

No, you've got it wrong - you should report it to pobox.com, because they've accepted responsibility for the message. That is precisely what the fact that they use SRS means - they're acting as a responsible forwarder. This is *good*. If it needs reporting to yahoo.com, the people to do that are pobox.com. They are able to determine the original sender.
