Thankfully, the From field now elides sender address, for a net spam
protection change of, um.

It seems other behaviour has changed too: my mail client now wants to
add another "Re:" which I've left as-is to see how that gets handled;
and my own outbound sender filter (ffmpeg@domain instead of me@domain)
seems to need some tweaking.

Aside from those and the recent spam blast things seem okay since the
transition, though I do slightly miss the spartan mail archives.

Cheers,
Rob
