The Received: field already includes a "for" clause which contains the
recipients of the message. It is usually omitted if there is more than one
recipient for privacy reasons (otherwise it could expose BCC recipients).
If Sender-ID were to use that clause, what should it contain in the
multiple recipients case? At least Resent-From: mailer-daemon makes some
kind of sense. Received: for unspecified-recipients@unspecified-domains?
