Users should not be playing with the From: address. That is what the
Reply-To: address is for. Our MTA normalizes all From: addresses so
this would not work anyway.

In many cases, yes. In some cases, when sending email to a list etc, it
expects a certain From: address. Since it is reasonable to have more
than one domain on a cluster, it is OK to use TCPIP$SMTP_FROM. If
necessary, one can disable this for users.
