In real-life, finaldestination.com usually did NOT have any role in
configuring (or requesting) forwarding.  It usually does not even know
the forwarding is occurring until something goes wrong.

Much of the point of SRS is to be a solution for forwarders that does
not require every case to be handled as a special case with some final
destination.  As a forwarder, SRS enables me to get forwarded mail to
my users.  As a final destination, SRS (at a forwarder) allows my
users to receive forwarded mail here without any intervention by me.
