The pine on the distribution should allow you to change it. There's some
info in the tech-notes at /usr/doc/packages/pine/tech-notes.txt:
ALLOW_CHANGING_FROM
This is now a hidden runtime feature called allow-changing-from.
Even with this feature turned on, users still have to include From:
in their default-composer-hdrs or customized-hdrs in order to be able
to edit the From line.
A system administrator may disallow editing of the From line by
putting the feature no-allow-changing-from in the system-wide fixed
configuration file. The paranoid system administrator can compile in
this behavior by defining NEVER_ALLOW_CHANGING_FROM in
./pine/osdep/os-xxx.h.
Bye,
