Matt,
I've seen this behavior and wondered if that behavior was legit.  But
it didn't seem to have any adverse effect and so I moved on to other
things.  Admittedly, I didn't test the behavior of all mailers in the
wild though...

Can somebody definitively point to the SMTP spec for addressing and
the Return-Path to confirm this is unacceptable?  My gut says it's
unacceptable, and you've now reinforced my belief.  But a definitive
reference would be good.
