DOA. It might be helpful to get a sense of proportion here as this
issue is so many angels on a pinhead in the real world. The real
world doesn't have multiple from addresses regardless of what unearthed
arcana somebody found in rfc2822.

Not to mention that this doesn't break rfc2822 in any way shape or
form. You are still completely at liberty to send with multiple From
addresses. Nor are you prevented on performing an SSP check on any
address that you choose to.
