If you're sending mail from the local host running qmail, then your
MUA is passing the outgoing mail to qmail-inject, possibly through
the qmail "sendmail" wrapper. If your qmail is on a separate machine
than the one from which you're sending the mail, then I may be mistaken
in my diagnosis.

That's true for sending mail from a remote host.

The envelope "header" isn't really a header on the message; in a Unix
mailbox the envelope from field appears in the "From " header that's
the first line of the message. Some MTAs put the envelope recipient into
the "Received:" fields (e.g. "received for <user@host>").
The envelope from field for qmail-inject can be set with the
environmental variables QMAILUSER and QMAILHOST, which you'll see in
the Perl script I'll send you.
