For many reasons it is best to ignore Sender. It serves no value and
screws things up when you need to communicate with people who use
certains brain-dead MUAs. (Yes, this is a bug with those stupid
(and closed source of course) MUAs, but they are prevalent and Sender
does not provide any benefit to anyone, so it is just *easier* -- and
completely safe -- to forget it entirely.)
