So what is the verdict on this? Should I be adding a RP just
before handing 
email to dbmail, or should dbmail append it both in the
headers and 
physmessage, or does it matter at all?

with the patch applied I could not find issues whether you
add
RP in the MTA or not.

If passing messages via LMTP, I would not add a
RP in the MTA since dbmail gets this from the LMTP
envelope sender which is the most reliable place.

If passing messages via dbmail-smtp, I would specify the -r
$
flag to ensure that this is the header that is used rather
than any
pre-existing one, which may be forged.
