Just to drop my $.02, it is recommended to use the following variables for setting your sender information, rather than setting the headers explicitly (my_hdr): set realname="John Doe" set from="[email protected]" set use_from=yes This is to let mutt be able to determine alternate addresses, so that any of your own e-mail addresses (if you have any) could be used as sender address when replying to a mail that was sent to it. For this above to work you also have to set the flag "reverse_name".
