3.9. Mailing Lists and Aliases

An SMTP-capable host SHOULD support both the alias and the list models of address expansion for multiple delivery. When a message is delivered or forwarded to each address of an expanded list form, the return address in the envelope ("MAIL FROM:") MUST be changed to be the address of a person or other entity who administers the list. However, in this case, the message header section (RFC 5322 [11]) MUST be left unchanged; in particular, the "From" field of the header section is unaffected.

In particular "MUST be left unchanged" seems to prohibit addition of header fields.

Discussion at the January 2022 interim ended with the suggestion to remove:

However, in this case, the message header section (RFC 5322 [11]) MUST be left unchanged; in particular, the "From" field of the header section is unaffected.

However further discussion continued after the interim meeting on the mailing list.
