The issue I am trying to overcome is not the lack of a From: header;
that one can be expected to always exist in my particular use case.

For me, the relevant issue is that when using the sendmail binary, the
envelope sender address defaults to <loginn...@host.example.com> no
matter the From: header's value. As mentioned before, I am also dealing
with a 1:n relationship between each user's loginname and their multiple
valid email addresses.

I want to force the envelope sender address to always match the address
in the From: header exactly, with as little overhead as possible. While
my existing sendmail wrapper script works fine, I'd rather avoid that
extra step.
