 > Who would have known, turns out this is bad mojo, and doesn't play nice
 with other configurations, causing regressions #5273 and 5294 . Seems that
 in some environments if you are smart enough to set the Sender, you are
 dumb to be a spammer, and so they run it through "callout verification".

 That's bad news - seems we're damned if we do set Sender and we're damend
 if we don't depending on the server config :-(

 I think we should set it to be honest as it's consistent and valid. Any
 host dropping email that sets Sender is being overly strict IMO.
