Say someone has setup spf for his domain and sends an email to a user
that has in roundcube enabled the sieve forward. If the message is
forwarded without altering the message headers, this could result in a
message being blocked or not relayed, because sending hosts ip, is not
in the spf of the from: domain.
Possible solutions are:
- add option if enabled, it replaces the From: with that of the email
address of the sieve user. (Maybe move the original sender to the
Reply-To header? Maybe exception for 'internal' forward?)
- Upon processing the message, check the spf records, if they are
enforced, do the above, otherwise do nothing.
