I missed the original message, so I'm replying to this followup...
Anyways, to get Pine to let you change your "From" header, you have to
download the source to Pine, change a line in one of the config files,
and recompile.
Grab the SRPM, apply all the patches, and such, then edit the
pine/osdep/os-lnx.h file. Look for the ALLOW_CHANGING_FROM line and
set that. There might be some other things in there you want to change,
that's up to you. Save the file, and follow the instructions for
building (cd into the pine3.96 directory, run ./build lnx, if I
remember correctly).
That'll then allow you to change the "From" field by the procedures you
were following.
