You seem to be saying that that doc counters my assertion.

This is a classic example of the problem with such a generic pointer: it leaves the reader to search through the document to find the essential bit of text. And alas in my case, I failed.

I do not see anything in that doc that makes it valid to have a From field with no domain name.
