So the question is what the SMTP code should use as fallback (the sendmail
code
seems to omit the '-f addr' part in that case)...
Use username (or 'nobody' if user can't be determined) as mailbox and
hostname
(or 'localhost' if hostname can't be determined) as domain part?
Since the sendmail-calling code explicetely tests for 'from' being exactly
one address,
I guess it's an invalid assumption that a message always has a sender
address? Though
I'd be interested as to when this happens (and why) since mutt should IMHO
always generate
some sender for any outgoing message...
