%F will show who the message was sent TO (rather than FROM) if Mutt thinks
the message was sent by YOU. Use %f instead if you don't like that behavior.
The reason it suggests sending back to yourself when you reply is because
Mutt thinks YOU were the one who sent it. :-) if that is not the case,
double check your $alternatives variable to make sure you aren't catching
email addresses that don't belong to you.
