So I went back to the original mail to see what the headers said.
From: yyy
Sender: xxx
What happened was that yyy scheduled a meeting. In Outlook (and some
other calendars), there's an option to reply to the people in the
meeting by making a comment in the calendar. Apparently Exchange sends
the comment out with the `From` of the original calendar creator, but
the `Sender` of the person who made the comment.
But it got me to wondering whether there was a way to show the sender
in the from line when they were different. Mainly that would show up
for mailing lists:
From: J Smith (sent by mailing list)
To be honest, I've never really looked into the `Sender` header.
Although the above seems sensible then based on my emails I'm not sure
it would always work well. It seems I've got some weird Sender headers
in some messages and quite a few which have a Sender header which is
identical to the From address (which is incorrect behavior according to
the RFC).
Your suggestion makes sense, but I don't see Apple Mail doing it. Maybe
some other email clients handle it well?
(Low level, it's possible to force MailMate to show this header, but
it's not possible to prevent it from being shown when it's not unique.)
