A-ha! There is indeed a mailer flag, F=n, that means "Don't add a
UNIX-style From header" (what the sendmail people call that initial
"From " header).
(wrapper just passes stdin to stdout after checking various items
for security issues. resend calls sendmail and does strip the
leading "Mail " header. Which is why MD doesn't run into this
problem. But remember, we're not talking about MD on this list. :-)
