Notice, that they also munge the From:, but they include the author's
email address buried within the munged From:.
It is not the "correct" From: and Reply-to:,
but, apparently some "modern" systems will not tolerate it done
"correctly".
Given that it is NOT going to be done "correctly", which among us are
capable of successfully working around it?
This discussion is a little like a pedantic grammar argument.
