First, few sites use BATV. Second, BATV works perfectly fine with autoresponders that adhere to mail standards: a) reply to the envelope sender address, and b) send the reply with a null envelope sender address. I suspect that BATV also inter-operates with buggy autoresponders that violate both requirements a) and b): reply to an address in the from header, and send email with a non-null envelope sender. But BATV won't inter-operate with buggy autoresponders that violate only a) or b) but not both. That is a BATV feature, not a bug. Currently, your gnarwl setup falls into none of these categories since it changes a remote address into a local one. You can prevent address destruction by not using the gnarwl -s option (this means you will violate requirement a) above), but that won't be sufficient for BATV inter-operability unless gnarwl also violates the b) requirement.
