The
@domain that is added is copied from the envelope sender??™s address.
This F=C delivery agent flag is not looked for in the delivery agent definition that was
selected to send the message. Rather, it is looked for in the delivery agent that would be
selected if the sender were the recipient (as in the case of bounced mail).
* This was originally added because of a bug in an early version of Lotus Notes that rejected messages that
included the comment.

20.8 Delivery Agent F= Flags | 769
To illustrate, consider the following mail:
From: bill@oursite.edu
To: john@remotesite.gov, alice
The recipient address alice lacks an @domain specification. The sendmail program
processes the envelope sender address bill@oursite.edu to decide on a delivery agent definition
that can be used if this mail needs to be returned. If that envelope sender??™s return
mail delivery agent has the F=C delivery agent flag set, the @oursite.edu part of the envelope
sender??™s address is appended to alice:
From: bill@oursite.edu
To: john@remotesite.gov, alice@oursite.edu
The F=C delivery agent flag is traditionally used for the smtp class of delivery agent that is
supposed to always supply an @domain part for all addresses.
Note that the domain part of the envelope sender is used.
