I stand corrected. The mutt index shows bounced messages as coming from
the original sender, and my procmail-like MDA handles bounced messages
likewise, and I never noticed that the "From " line showed my address.
However, a message from someone else that I "resent" (<ESC>e) to myself
also has the "From " line set to my address. So, if resend is supposed
to use the original sender's address in the envelope, it doesn't appear
to do so for me.
