Neat, didn't know that one.

Ok, I will keep that in mind.

I tried with both
set alternates=(yoo@vranx\.de|yooden@vranx\.de|.+@thorstenhau\.de)
Result: alternates="(yoo@xxxxxxxx|yooden@xxxxxxxx|.+@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx)"
and
set alternates=(yoo@vranx\\.de|yooden@vranx\\.de|.+@thorstenhau\\.de)
Result: alternates="(yoo@vranx\.de|yooden@vranx\.de|.+@thorstenhau\.de)"
but the behaviour does not change, I do not get the reversed address,
but the one from my default hook:
send-hook . 'my_hdr From: yooden@xxxxxxxx'
If the hook causes this, how could I use different sender for
different mailing lists and reverse_name in my inbox?
What other things modify reverse_name's behaviour?
