MAIL FROM is blank in Delivery Status Notification(DSN)

When Domino sends a Delivery Failure Report to the internet, the MAIL FROM header is blank. The SMTP conversation shows: "MAIL FROM: <>". This will result in a 554 relay rejection failure if Domino sends DFR through relay host/mail gateway that has a restriction policy set for the blank MAIL FROM header. Please provide an option to set MAIL FROM address.

      This is in line with the RFC 3464
      https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3464#section-2

      Whenever an SMTP transaction is used to send a DSN, the MAIL FROM
      command MUST use a NULL return address, i.e., "MAIL FROM:<>".
