A followon to my previous message: Running sendmail on my own server, the only time
its ip address appears in a Received header is when it is used to send out mail.
Incoming mail results in a Received header that shows its local ip address inside the
NAT firewall. So it would be easy to filter out any mail that has my domain in the
>From address and does not have my mail server's external ip address in a Received
header.

This trick would not work for people who don't have a dedicated SMTP server at a
fixed ip address for their exclusive use that can be accessed from anywhere they want
to send mail. That's where a custom X-header configured in your mail client might
come in.
