To save you the hassle of "remembering to apply" email settings, which
is a total PITA in every mailer I've used except for mutt, consider
using GNU Anubis as a private-MTA ...

<deep-breath>
Just run Anubis on port 24 (by default - the private MTA port), and set
that as the SMTP server for your email client. It will post-process the
messages per your rules, including re-writing the envelope as well as
the headers, and applying GPG signatures, and also negotiating TLS if
your client cannot, all in real-time while presenting yout MUA with a
tunnelled session to the real SMTP server you specify.

A sample header from my .anubisrc ...
if header[To] "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
   modify [From] "Jim Cheetham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
fi

This lets me set From addresses ... you can probably guess how easy it
is to do other things, too ... :-)

(NB - I use the latest Anubis, version 3.9.* Most distributions only
include 3.6.* ... which has prblems with gpg and a "worse" config file
syntax)
