I don't know how ESPs and From Rewrite ended up in the same sentence. ESPs do not need From rewrite because they can do DKIM signing. The incentives are all against them using or allowing From rewrite.
Taking business from criminal clients does not include allowing one client to impersonate another client or a non-client. Such behavior would hurt the revenue of the ESP.
