So the Wikipedia article basically suggests there are many variants. Interesting. It's been my experience that almost all mail systems honor the bounces-to (which *sometimes* is based off the From or Reply-To unless the field bounces-to is set in the headers, it seems.)

Notice the samples below which prove out my point in that regard:

Return-path: <[email protected]>
Envelope-to: [email protected]
From: "Everyday Food - MarthaStewart.com" <[email protected]>
To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]>
Reply-To: [email protected]

Return-path: <[email protected]>
Envelope-to: [email protected]
From: Stan <[email protected]>
Bounces-To: [email protected]

My mistake NOT "bounces-to" rather "return-path" as in the following snippet
of campaign emails from Home Depot, Martha Stewart and Sears:
Maybe this helps.

And reading the above article I just learned that my terminology
was wrong too, 'envelope from' I meant where I used 'envelope sender'.
