That is not the correct Return-Path. Either you've mis-read something, you're 
MUA is having a really bad day, or your mail somewhere along the line is 
collected by POP3 from a clueless ISP that does not add a Return-Path when 
delivering to your mailbox and something closer to you has had to make a best 
guess at the RP. And got it wrong. That was the From: header in the message to 
which you refer.

The RP here looked like this:

"Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"

yours should be similar, but with your address encoded into it rather than mine 
(that's the VERP).
