Sure there is.

No there isn't.

Yes. there is;-p can we agree to disagree or do we need to contact the UNO?

Maybe.

The FROM_ (the envelope from, the SMTP transaction from, etc) should always be the actual source of the message. If acme.tld is sending a message on behalf of [EMAIL PROTECTED] then the FROM_ has to be acme.tld. The From: should be [EMAIL PROTECTED] there is no reason to lie in the SMTP transaction about who you are, and spoofing that is going to be a spam-tag to many servers.

I touched on this in a previous message, the FROM_ and the Received headers should match up in some way, even if 'matched up' is simply an SPF match for the FROM_
