That's the problem. What's special about the From: line? Do you
check to ensure that signed mail doesn't contain viruses, or Ponzi
schemes or hate speech or child pornography or any of a zillion other
things that well run mail systems wouldn't want to send?
I let my users change the From: line to whatever they want, and sign
it all with my main domain. If the From: line happens to contain an
address in a domain for which I have a signing key, I also sign with
that.
