Hi, mutt-friends!

There is something I can't quite figure out:

I want mutt to build the "From" line by checking the To: line of
the message I am replying to (manual says: set reverse_name).
If it can't figure it out from there (or if I am not replying
to a mail) I want it to use: "From: Andy Spiegl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>".

The first part works nicely, but the second doesn't.  Mutt always
uses "spiegl@mycomputeratwork". :-((
Here is the relevant part of my .muttrc:
 set reverse_name       # reply as the user to whom the mail was sent to
 #send-hook . my_hdr From: Andy Spiegl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
 send-hook '~C mutt-'  'my_hdr From: Andy Spiegl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'

If I uncomment the 2nd line, mutt _always_ uses this address, thus
ignores the setting of the variable reverse_name.  Am I doing something
wrong here or is this just a property (no, I won't say bug!) of mutt?

Thanks a lot!
 Andy.
