I do something very similar myself and had the same problem until
someone on this mailing list helped me out.

This is the correct way of setting the 'From:' line.

Here you want to unset the my_hdr From:

send-hook .             'unmy_hdr From: ;\
                          set signature = ".sig_foo";'

This is where you set the my_hdr From:
    
send-hook '~t "(user1|user2|user3)@.*"' \
    set signature=.sig_bar; \
    my_hdr From: Bar <bar@xxxxxxxxxxx>'

Hope this helps;
