Bug: Error raised on bounce deliver_to &outbound_delivery

[qjebbs]

Describe the bug

What do you think is wrong?

The config:

remote_queue.bounce.deliver_to &outbound_delivery

leads to error

SMTPUTF8 is unsupported, cannot convert sender address

Background: I use Maddy as a side submission service, I want to deliver DSN to remote main service instead of local

Steps to reproduce

1. Change the default config file:

   target.queue remote_queue {
       target &outbound_delivery
   
       autogenerated_msg_domain $(primary_domain)
       bounce {
           destination $(local_domains) {
   -            deliver_to &local_routing
   +            deliver_to &outbound_delivery
           }
           default_destination {
               reject 550 5.0.0 "Refusing to send DSNs to non-local addresses"
           }
       }
   }

2. Submit an email with invalid RCPT invalid@example.org to submission tls://0.0.0.0:465

3. DSN delivery reports error

Environment information

Did some debugging:

dsnPipeline started with empty RCPT.

maddy/internal/target/queue/queue.go

Line 961 in 1d6cd8c

dsnDelivery, err := q.dsnPipeline.Start(mailCtx, dsnMeta, "")

The error is caused by address.ToASCII(from) with from being empty:

maddy/internal/smtpconn/smtpconn.go

Lines 309 to 327 in 1d6cd8c

	if opts.UTF8 {
	if ok, _ := c.cl.Extension("SMTPUTF8"); ok {
	outOpts.UTF8 = true
	} else {
	var err error
	from, err = address.ToASCII(from)
	if err != nil {
	return &exterrors.SMTPError{
	Code: 550,
	EnhancedCode: exterrors.EnhancedCode{5, 6, 7},
	Message: "SMTPUTF8 is unsupported, cannot convert sender address",
	Misc: map[string]interface{}{
	"remote_server": c.serverName,
	},
	Err: err,
	}
	}
	}
	}

The message is misleading, and the expected actions cannot be done.
