v1.41 did also set the Return-Path header.  I don't know how you tested
this, but I can see this header in every mail I created with v1.41.

My problem is not *that* TB sets the Return-Path.  The problem is that
TB sets it to the address specified in the Reply-To header rather than
to the address specified in the From header.

This can lead (and leads in my case) to the odd situation that outgoing
mail is rejected by the SMTP server.
