Question about from address

[Jim Dickenson]

I have this option specified:

Add Envelope From Header = yes



That is what adds this header:

MailScanner-From: frame< @ >scrappy.surveyspot.com

And I still do not understand why it shows this address and not the address
that is shown in my sendmail list as being the sender:

sendmail[12558]: k34KuiHl012558: from=<frame< @ >scrappy.surveysampling.com>
