Comment:

 If I may insert myself into this discussion, there is a way to do this
 that suits EVERYONE here.

 1. Create an extender; class wp_phpmailer extends phpmailer
 2. Create a new send function in there
 function Send() { do_action_ref_array( 'phpmailer_send', array( &$this )
 ); parent::Send(); }
 ->now we can hook just before sending, where we can alter all headers as
 much as we want.
 3. patch WordPress to use new wp_phpmailer instead of new phpmailer.

 This is all theory ofcourse
