There's more than one way to rewrite a From: header, and that's the worst.

On my system if the incoming header looks like this:

From: Marissa <mme...@yahoo.com>

It gets rewritten like this:

From: Marissa <me...@yahoo.com.dmarc.fail>

The IETF does more or less the same thing but it's uglier because the
guy who did it believes there is something special about the three
characters =40 in an address.

R's,
