Back then, the most that broke when you send out a sender address you
didn't want was some mailing list software, and the usual response was
"fix the ml software". Now there's a huge installed base of people
using Outlook, and we know hoping for it to be fixed is well-nigh
hopeless. (As shown by Gnus's tools to hide Outlook's nationalized
"Re"s. Ever notice that you can put any two character code followed
by a colon starting a subject and Outlook will strip it? Argh.)
