Tangentially related, is there a way to tell whether an email from a UVM
address (presumably to another UVM address) was authenticated via
username/password? I'm thinking to verify, that the first "Received"
header would be smtp#.uvm.edu, and specify SSL/TLS. However, I don't
know whether there's a specific indicator in the headers, which would be
useful.
