Hello Thorsten,
if you put set envelope_from
into your muttrc then mutt will call sendmail with that -f flag and sets the
from-header to whatever you specified in your muttrc with set from.
If you have several mail accounts you could use some send-hooks to change
your from header depending on what account you are using
Hope that helps
martin
