In my headers, you will see a field called "Sender".  I didn't add this field.
I don't really object to it... but the Lsoft "listserv" mailing list package
does.  Whenever there's both a From: line *and* a "Sender:" line, listserv
concludes that the Sender: line is authoritative.  Unfortunately, it's wrong;
my "From" address is my "real" email address, the "Sender" address (obviously)
changes whenever I move from one machine to another.

Where did "Sender" come from?  Is there an RFC discussing what it's for?

I notice that in NMH, this is suppressible with "draft_from" masquerading.
So, I assume it's now considered optional.  Any history on this?
