No it is not.

"munge8bit" does not affect MAIL FROM data in LMTP session. It affects
RFC-2822 headers only.

"reject8bit" is hardly acceptable anyway if you deal with languages
other than English, Dutch and Italian. Too many real web-scripts and
other dumb programs still don't know MIME-2 and send non-ASCII (i.e.,
French or German) names and subjects as is, in 8 bit.
