The people you're talking to aren't compentent to run a mail server. The
SMTP envelope doesn't contain any 'headers' -- those are part of the message,
not the envelope. The envelope contains exactly two things, a sender and
a recipient (specified with MAIL FROM: and RCPT TO:). Their mail system should
be delivering based on the contents of the RCPT TO: and _nothing else_.
Besides, when talking about mail headers, I thought X- was essentially a way
of saying explicityly that a header is non-standard.
