it seems that a few MTA can be thrown at an email with a EAI RFC5321.mailfrom and pass the message fine to other MTA or local delivery, as long as the MTA supports 8BITMIME and the RFC5321.rcptto is a standard email address. 

replying to such email is a challenge, but it does not seem any MTA or MUA (with 8BITMIME) will complain because the RFC5321.from is an EAI...
