An eminently sensible thing to do - no reasonably secure mailserver should be
expected to accept mail from unresolvable domains (and that's why set
envelope_from was introduced in the first place)
My linux box is frodo.kcircle.com which does not exist at all. Without set
envelope_from (or set sendmail) I'd not be able to mail out at all.

Machines certainly can solve problems, store information, correlate,
and play games -- but not with pleasure.
