Yes it does. I use mbox folders. The From separator usually uses the
envelope sender. In fact, it really does for incoming messages...

On the contrary, I want it to be exactly what was sent!

I expected the envelope sender to be stored in the From separator line
of my mbox folder, and the header stored in the From: header, just like
it is for incoming messages :

I suspect it can be useful also for postponed messages or messages
created from a saved message (via <resend-message>)...
