Actually, you can change the "From" header even if that ability hasn't been
compiled in.  Compose your message, then *postpone* it instead of sending it.
Suspend or exit Pine, then use a text editor to edit your postponed-msgs file,
changing the line starting with "From:" as you wish.  Save the file, resume or
restart Pine.  Use "c" to continue composing your postponed message, then send
it using "CTRL-X" as usual.  The recipient sees the "From:" header you want, and
"reply" sends to that address, but full headers will show where the message
really came from.

Add a "From:..."-header to the customized headers. If this doesn't work
you have to recompile pine after changing the option ALLOW_CHANGING_FROM
in the file pine/osdep/os-***.h (*** stands for your operating system).
