Did you use --with-mts=sendmail when configuring nmh? If not, it'll send
mail by talking over SMTP to a mail server, and then you may get different
results from sending mail using sendmail at the commandline.
A quick fix (if you want to use [EMAIL PROTECTED] on all your emails)
would be to copy all the components files in /usr/local/nmh/etc (or wherever
you had those files be installed) into your Mail directory and hardcode your
desired From: line into them. You'll also want "draft_from" on the
"masquerade:" line (make sure it's not commented out) of the sytem
mts.conf. That'll prevent your incorrect address from being used in the
envelope From.
You could also ask the powers that be to add MX records for
hell.spielwiese.de (the same ones that spielwiese.de uses).
