Currently, the sender can sign an encrypted email with any identity in their Yivi app, which may not match the email address they are sending from. This allows a mismatch between the sender's signing identity and the actual From address.
Expected behavior
The addon should enforce that the sender signs the email using the same email address that the email is being sent from. If the sender's Yivi disclosure does not include the matching email address, the send should be blocked with an appropriate error message.
Why
Recipients rely on the sender verification badges to confirm the identity of the person who sent the encrypted email. If the signing identity doesn't match the From address, this undermines the trust model.
