What about Return-Path:? I modified my MH configuration files
to prefer that because it seems to be right more of the time
than any of the others.
For example, when stuff gets sent through sites like pyramid
and nbires, the From: line gets left alone, but Return-Path:
is modified. The problem is that other sites may modify From:,
so the path might appear to be uunet!mips.com!mdove, when the
actual path taken would have been mips!pyramid!uunet!nbires.
