Happy to see this! The text about email's Received field metadata has been
in drafts leading to RFC 7624 for more than a year, and it is very good that
someone active in the email working groups actually proposes a solution.

Now for a suggestion. Maybe that's a difference in personal writing styles,
but I found the draft a bit dry. I would have appreciated a discussion of
the scenarios, and a bit of emphasis on the "submission" part, which is the
most concerning for privacy.
