It is up to the WG chairs to determine if a draft is within the scope
of the WG.  From my reading the charter, my suggestion would be that
this draft is not in scope, and would be better as an individual
submission.

This isn't an RFC yet, and doesn't yet have a status.  You shouldn't
say it is Experimental or an RFC.

It is an implementation decision to let BCC recipients see other BCC
recipients or not; either is conformant.

Note that this may not be a valid email address.  A server should use a
MAIL FROM value which is known to be valid and which is associated with
the authenticated user.
