The "From" address of the mail sent should not be simply the user (which never himself sent this as a mail), and that's it. There should be some indication that Naveed is the real sender.

From RFC 5322:

The "From:" field specifies the author(s) of the message, that is, the mailbox(es) of the person(s) or system(s) responsible for the writing of the message. The "Sender:" field specifies the mailbox of the agent responsible for the actual transmission of the message. For example, if a secretary were to send a message for another person, the mailbox of the secretary would appear in the "Sender:" field and the mailbox of the actual author would appear in the "From:" field. If the originator of the message can be indicated by a single mailbox and the author and transmitter are identical, the "Sender:" field SHOULD NOT be used. Otherwise, both fields SHOULD appear.

This suggests to add a Naveed email as a Sender: - Header.

Intended outcome:

  • Adds the ability to tread specifically Naveed messages via Header in MUA.
  • Answering the mail is not interfered with (goes to author, not Naveed).
