This has been reported before, but I wondered if anyone has managed to get
to the bottom of this conundrum.

I have a contact with a Hotmail address. He sends me a message which Hotmail
flags as dangerous. When the message arrives in WLMail, it is also flagged,
and again claims to be from an unknown sender (see screenshot). So the
'sender' that is unrecognized is not the address of the purported author of
the message, but some other. Why should this message fail the acid SID test?
Who does WLMail think the sender is?

It doesn't matter that much with this message, but ones that fail the SID
test completely never get delivered, and that is worrying.

The headers of the mail referred to follow.

Yes. The screenshot shows, at the top of the message pane, "Unknown sender",
while the tooltip over the sender's address in the same pane reads "Edit
Contact."
