MAIL FROM != From header
MAIL FROM is the return path/envelope sender  address and it must
contain *only* an valid email address, no "Joe X <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" here.
An empty return path, ie MAIL FROM, is used with bounces.
What you can do, if your mailserver supports it, is to block email
with empty envelope sender that has multiple recipients. A valid
bounce never have more than one recipient.
