Several points on this.

1. If you need to set your from name and/or address, better let
   mutt know what you're trying to do - set the 'from' variable,
   do not add a new header.

2. Keyboard macros expand to just that - key sequences.  Thus,
   if you want to enter a command, you need to prefix it with ':',
   just as you would've done if you'd tried to enter it on the mutt
   'command line'.

So..

macro index '<f9>' ':set from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"<enter>' 'Send as wm'

And you could even try:

macro index '<f9>' ':set from="William Maddler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"<enter>' 'Send as wm'

Hope that helps :)

G'luck,
Peter

This sentence contradicts itself - or rather - well, no, actually it doesn't!
