Hi, there!

I get some mailing lists to a second account "volker-ml@..." (instead of
volker@..."). So I want to set the correct header line "From:" for these
lists.

I tried

  set realname="Volker Moell"
  set use_from=yes
  send-hook . 'set from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"'
  send-hook '~L mutt' 'set from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"'

but this doesn't work: I always get the mail address Header line

  From: Volker Moell <moell>
  
where "moell" is my Linux account.  When setting $from not via (sent-)
hook, I get this value instead of "moell".  But in no case I get the
value from my default send-hook.


When setting "my_hdr" instead of $from works:

  set realname="Volker Moell"
  set from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
  set use_from=yes
  send-hook . 'unmy_hdr From:'
  send-hook '~L mutt' 'my_hdr From: Volker Moell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'


Where's my error? Is this a bug or a feature?  Is there a way to get rid
of the "my_hdr From:" to use the $from variable?


Thanks in andvance for any hints,

    -volker

BTW: I'm using the latest mutt-1.3.23.
