However, this provision shouldn't interfere with NAT on a home network.
All the machines are at the same address, the origin of the communication.
(The actual source of email communication is the keyboard processor, not
the computer with the IP address and email client.)

OTOH, the sections dealing with "theft of service" may apply.  Moral is to
get your service from a provider that allows NAT.
