yes, this is absolutely verifiable. But it is not a bug. I'd say it's an
implimentation issue. Some mail servers validate the sender's address as
being a member of the mail server's domain, but post.office does not. I'd
say a fix is needed :)
Other problem is some SMTP client software (like eudora, but not
specifically), don't send the sender's name correctly when logging into an
SMTP server. I've see this:
HELO MOZILLA from netscape. It should actually be HELO mark@isat.com (or
HELO mark)
which the mail server should then respond with an OK or not authorized.
