I suspect that difference between sendmail-send-it and
smtpmail-send-it is unintentional, as is this other difference in the
handling of the From: header:
* sendmail-send-it checks for non-ASCII characters in the fullname and
escapes them using rfc2047-encode-string; smtpmail-send-it does not.
Perhaps that section (starting with the following comment) should be
modularized into its own mail-do-from function that both *-send-it
functions could call (like mail-do-fcc).
