It sends the bits in the envelope address. This information is
received with
- The MAIL FROM command in SMTP,
- The Postfix sendmail command (with -the -f option, the default
is the local UNIX user, and that is probably your problem),
- Or with the rarely-used qmqpd service.

Hey, don't blame my employer for that :-)
