Whoa, weird.  What ver. of sendmail you running?  In the composition
form it DOES fill in the FROM field correctly?  I had no problems in
doing what you are doing.  ( I had to test to make sure I hadn't missed
that ).

If it was happening for everyone, it certainly would have. But you'll note that 
I show up in the From: header above, and I'm using IMP 2.3 cvs. So it's 
something more specific to your setup, somehow, and you're going to have to 
help us figure out what that is...
