Well, the easy way is:
my_hdr From: Dave Morse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Or, if you have Mutt 1.2 or later, I'll recommend:
set [EMAIL PROTECTED]
set realname="Dave Morse"

set reverse_name
This requires that your $alternates setting correctly matches all your
own email addresses. It also works with "set from=...", but it won't
work with "my_hdr From: ...".
See the manual for more information.
Hope this helps,
