To use Unicode in certain email header fields, e.g. subject lines, sender and recipient names, the Unicode text has to be encoded using a MIME "Encoded-Word" with a Unicode encoding as the charset. To use Unicode in the domain part of email addresses, IDNA encoding must traditionally be used.
In 1999 Hotmail included an X-Originating-IP email header field that shows the IP address of the sender. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] As of December 2012, Hotmail removed this header field, replacing it with X-EIP (meaning encoded IP) with the stated goal of protecting users' privacy.
However, the SMTP envelope sender address will contain the name of the Gmail account used to send the message. Thus the underlying Gmail account address remains readily available: it will typically appear in a "Sender:" header field, or occasionally in the subject field. Some mail clients will write "From: Sender@gmail.com [mailto:Sender@gmail ...

May add sender permits to add a Sender address header field if the envelope sender address does not match any author address in the "From" header field. This roughly complies with the Sender ID model specified in RFC 4406 – ignoring the tricky case of Resent-From header fields not covered in RFC 6409.
Sami Farin proposed an Anti-Bogus Bounce System in 2003 in news.admin.net-abuse.email, [1] which used the same basic idea of putting a hard to forge hash in a message's bounce address. In late 2004, Goodman et al. proposed a much more complex "Signed Envelope Sender" [ 2 ] that included a hash of the message body and was intended to address a ...
