Uh... you say that a SMTP MTA should analyze message headers and turn
the retrieved information into envelope recipient data? I don't buy
that. How's that supposed to work anyway: The moment the first message
header appears in a SMTP connection's data stream is by definition the
DATA part of the session. At that time all envelope sender and
recipient specifications have been completed anyway.
The only scenario where a SMTP MTA must deduce envelope information from
message headers is when the MTA is locally invoked a'la "sendmail -t".
