What is eMailSender?

Holds the sender address as it appears in the cached message's header. Admins use this to identify who originated a delivery attempt when investigating errors or unexpected mail volume in the cache. Seeing many cache entries with the same eMailSender value and eMailStatus of resourceLimitation(4) would suggest one sender is overloading the mail system.
