Well, I said:

so if that is unclear, let me quote a part of my editor wrapper script
(this is a separate shell script, called from mutt as editor):

# procmail saves the envelope-from into X-Label:, then .muttrc sets and
# Sent-To: %y attribution.
envelopeto=`grep "^Sent-To:" $file | cut -d":" -f2-`
if [ `echo $envelopeto | grep -c "@"` -gt 0 ]
then
   grep -v "^From:" $file > $file.tmp
   echo "From:"$envelopeto | cat - $file.tmp > $file
   grep -v "^Sent-To:" $file > $file.tmp
   mv $file.tmp $file
fi

Hope this helps some more,
