Hi,

This is an invalid email address, so it's neither correct nor incorrect to have this output. But this reminded me that I was going to discuss about this with other IETF people. Lets see what others think: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/extra/sqRTdsV_DGBhHu2ghdCDFo_pM8Q/

While it is an invalid email address, in the exact same vein as <https://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2020-August/119658.html> Dovecot's approach is unhelpful here, and means MUAs must download complete headers rather than reply on envelope address structures. In fact, unlike in the linked case this example this is actually a security vulnerability: http://mailspolit.com/

As a MUA maintainer, I'd really like to see Dovecot take a more proactive approach to sending useful values in envelope address structure, so we don't have to download headers all the time.

This is a valid email address, and ENVELOPE reply is correct.

Agreed.
