As others have already said, this is a mail delivery agent thing, and
nothing Mutt can help you with.
What I do is use sendmail's UserDB, which allows me to change my outgoing
mail name, and then adding on the mailer flag (I believe either i or j)
which tells sendmail to apply UserDB to the envelope as well. Works fine
for me.
