Would it still be OK to substitute MAILER-DAEMON in the From:
message header when Postfix is going to insert one?
The envelope sender address would remain <> as per the RFC recommendation.
This is good news; Sendmail currently changes <> to a MAILER-DAEMON
address when doing local deliveries, and it causes quite a few
annoying problems dealing with smart local delivery agents, especially
using LMTP.
