[msmtp-users] generate the 'From:' header if missing

[Ilya Basin <basinilya@...20...>]

Hi list! I recently switched to yahoo.co.uk mail. My recipients
receive e-mails from me without the 'From:' header. ('Return-Path:' is
set correctly though). This didn't happen with other e-mail providers.
I've set the "from" option and "auto_from" isn't set, but that doesn't
help. If I add the header to the message myself, all is fine, but I
don't wan't to, I want to freely switch the accounts.
Can msmtp create the missing header?
