So, please point to the formal specification that permits a From: field
to have no email address.
RFC 6854.
That's what I cited, too. It makes much of allowing the group construct
(to permit aggregating various forms of the same addressee).
I assume the 'no address' permission is based on the CWFS alternative in:
group-list = mailbox-list / CFWS / obs-group-list
which the document doesn't explain at all. Nor does it impose the
RFC733 fall-back of requiring a Sender: field, with an email address.
If there's something else permitting no addressee, I'm still missing it.
