gpg signed mail from wrong sender verifying correctly without warning

claws-mail does correctly verify the signature status for emails, so it shows
"Good Signature from <signature key primary address>".

it does not, however, verify the actual from/sender address is one of the
addresses in the signature key.


i have attached two email messages (one GPG, one S/MIME) that verify as
correctly signed messages, but each have a From: address that is not one of the
addresses in the smime certificate/gpg key.

expected behaviour: the signature status should include a warning that the from
address is none of the addresses in the signature key.
