This topic came up back in 2015:

  https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2015/10/msg00384.html

AFAICT, it's necessary (and likely sufficient) for the envelope_from
address (seen in Old-Return-Path) to match the subscribed address
(usually seen in From) for LDOSUBSCRIBER (no underscore) to appear
in the X-Spam-Status field.

IOW, LDOSUBSCRIBER can tell you whether they're subscribed only
when the two addresses match.

Cheers,
David.
