Right, because the SMTP server may be in a domain which is unrelated
to the client's.  The qmail author is pretty anal about wanting the
"right" tool to do each job in Email delivery...  So again, I suggest
that it would be nice if message-mode had an option to canonicalize
addresses in outgoing mail.

Comments?
