I realize that adding the host name is not-so-desirable behavior (which is why you won't see hostnames in my outgoing email :)). It is, however, very common, and I don't have any control over the large number of users and mail servers that would need to be fixed in order for it to go away.
Ed - the 2.0 behavior was a config option, not a bug. I know that someone who controls a host can give themselves any username they want - this is just one of the many easy ways to forge a from address. However, most users don't do this, and many are either unable or not knowledgable enough to fix their clients or servers to canonicalize the outgoing address. As such, SMART_MATCH provided a useful service to some of us harrowed admins.
I think I will take a closer look at the membership adapter. It doesn't seem that hard to hack the functionality back in at first glance, and it sure beats having to nag at all the (mostly external) users who have the problem.
