IMHO, that would not be a desirable change. That emoji (is it the
[cyclone emoji](https://emojipedia.org/cyclone/)?) looks so much like
the at sign (@) that I’m not sure most users would perceive the
difference. I think the whole point is to make the difference
very—possibly even comically—obvious.
Apologies if I’m being obtuse here. I suppose that if the emoji were
displayed as an image (e.g., 🌀) rather than a text character, it
might work. But this seems to me like a case of “if it ain’t broke,
don’t fix it”.
Guillaume’s suggestion to make this feature customizable is nice, but
I’d prefer that Benny spend his time on more important enhancements.

Thank you everyone for the answers. Now that I know the reason, I
think it is a great feature.
FYI if you change your mind about this feature, you can disable it
with the following command from a Terminal:
defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmNospoofSymbolDisabled -bool
YES
I found it distracting to always have a screen full of skulls because
of the way my mailing lists presents senders’ addresses. Not every
day is Halloween! đź‘» Some other more subtle symbol (say the ę©ś
emoji) would work better.
