The EAI WG found it was fine to remove the obligation to have an email

display part to assert the original author.
We had that relaxed permission for From:, in the original
From/Sender/Reply-to specification of rfc733, with the requirement that
there be a Sender: email address. It looks like we removed it for rfc822.
And while I recall something of the EAI discussion, I'm not recalling
this permission's being returned. Nor am I finding it in rfc6854:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6854#section-2
So, please point to the formal specification that permits a From: field
to have no email address.
Absent that, there's the small question about how the EAI group would
have the authority to make such a major change to such a basic email
feature...
