Yup, that's what happens. Hooks do not say to mutt "here's a temporary
setting for this email", but rather "when this hook is triggered,
perform this command", so you need to specify your defaults via hooks
as well (for any settings you plan on changing via hooks).

If that works, go with it. I'm a little surprised that "set from=..."
works; it was my understanding that at the time send-hook triggered,
the $from variable had already been consulted, and the only thing you
could do to change the return address would be to use a my_hdr
command. But that structure is essentially correct.
The way I do it is to use my_hdr commands and then have a default
setting like this:
send-hook . 'unmy_hdr From'
But like I said, if your configuration works, then stick with it!
