> h3. Why ?
> James currently allow delegation however there is no way currently to know, upon delegated user, as end user receiving an email, who did conduct the action.
> While performing research on other topics I did discover RFC-4954 adds a convenient AUTH parameter alongside MAIL FROM denotting the user that was really connected.
> h3. How?
> Leverage AUTH MAIL FROM parameter to set it to the real user upon submission.
> Accept but validate it when coming from third party systems
> Add convenience logs.
> Have this information carried over as a mail attribute.
> And finally add a way to move this envelope information into headers
