native-api added a comment to T152242: Modify email footer to clarify that by responding one reveals their address to the original sender.

Yeah...you'd think that but:

A non-issue as for me.

native-api added a comment to T66795: Email server's DMARC config prevents users from sending emails via Special:EmailUser.

The last few suggestions are only tangentially relevant. Let's not stall this task with scope creep.

@faidon, I failed to get a message through to Sealle@ruwiki about 2 days ago. Could you check this? I doubt either of our domains is yahoo - if it's not, there's more than one problematic domain.

The envelope From of those emails was wiki-<wiki>-<hash>@wikimedia.org, but I'm suspecting that the body's From was a Yahoo address (we're not logging that).

If From: is forged (=doesn't correspond to who the letter is actually from), that's more than legitimate a reason to bounce an e-mail.
