Well I know of at least one system at a sizeable organisation that is
trialling Imp that sets a dodgy Return-Path - it is /always/ set to
cyrus at host.
Of course, the fact that one organisation has difficulty configuring
their MTA shouldn't be any reason not write code that assumes that an
MTA is properly configured.
(Hint to aforementioned organisation: use the -r option to deliver)
