Because that's the address I would like to validate, because it is the
address my MUA uses when responding.

I would like the whitelist to allow messages based on their envelope
address though, to allow messsages from mailing lists to reach me.

That's debatable, and in any case it was the default exim config of
debian. 

The default config of debian, and other linuxen I have seen, is to have
username@FQDN as the envelope address, and that was what it was at the
time.
