    It permits to get rid of "my_hdr From:", while building the "From:"
header with $from and $realname, which is the natural way to declare
sender. And even the only way in case of <bounce-message>. Absence of
"my_hdr From:" also permits $reverse_name feature to work if enabled.

    You still can use "my_hdr From:" as an override in send-hooks if
necessary.

    ":push" is useless no operation, and it's better to use function
names in macros so it's clearer and works even with rebound keys:

| <edit-from><kill-line>XYZ <xyz@xxxxxx><Enter>


    BTW will your sender selection mechanism work nice with
<bounce-message> which does not go thru compose screen? I guess no,
unless you already composed another mail before.


    While at it, your accented chars setup is broken: You may want to
review it. Especially $send_charset and system locale. René will be
thankfull ;-).


Bye!    Alain.
