No. The From address is not the SMTP reverse-path. This message, for
example, has a From address dwmw2 at infradead.org but the SMTP reverse-path,
to which errors should go, is dwmw2 at redhat.com. (Unless it goes through
the list, in which case the reverse-path gets changed to linux-mtd-admin@,
so that errors in list delivery go to the list admin, not the original
sender.)

Or something equally stupid. Hence abuse@ their ISP getting CC'd on the
complaint.
