I hope that is the case > and that the perceived agreement holds. This discussion brought up another defect of RFC 5321, methinks. It does not define a straight line between an MTA and an MDA. Section 4.4 says: When the delivery SMTP server makes the "final delivery" of a message, it inserts a return-path line at the beginning of the mail data. Although the reasons for doing so are well explained, and are part of SMTP because of the reliability implications, inserting Return-Path: really looks like an MDA's job, not MTA's. Perhaps, the text should say something like: When an SMTP server accepts a message for local delivery, it invokes a delivery agent passing to it the content and relevant parts of the envelope. In particular, it MUST pass the <reverse-path>, which is used by the delivery agent to insert a return-path line at the beginning of the mail data. In that case, mentioning that an MTA also passes the relevant <forward-path>, would not require to fulfill the steps (i)-(iv) of a previous message[*], because neither the MTA/MDA interface nor (all) the duties of MDAs are part of the specification. Yet, it allows the I-D to mention non-normatively the names of Delivered-To:, Envelope-To:, and X-Original-To:. jm2c Ale -- [*] https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/emailcore/Vt1AboaP8j8rxnccedGvaLoPLyU
