examine security of Message.From #406

Open zippy opened 7 years ago

Currently the message object has a From that it's set by the sender. This introduces the envelope/ vs header/body distinction that allows the possibility of false provenance. Probably we should remove this, and instead pass the from as a parameter to all Receiver functions rather than have them extract this value from the Message
