Both should match in that case.

This is the behavior of mailing lists.
The MAIL FROM: envelope address will be used for bounces.
If you post to a mailing list, you don't want to receive the bounce of
subscribers addresses that are  undeliverable (e.g. mailbox
full, account deleted etc.).

The MAIL FROM will be matched by SPF and that will fail if you relay it
to any other external machine that checks it.
