Hi,

Here is a tiny patch improved message-use-alternative-email-as-from.

(1) Check "From" field in addition to "To" and "Cc".
    (It may be better the fields are customizable.)
(2) When alternative address was found, use `message-make-from' in order to
    supply user-full-name.

Regards,
ARISAWA Akihiro

I'm sorry for the late reply.  It took time to recall how
m-u-a-e-a-f and message-alternative-emails act. ;-)  I've
committed the patch in the Gnus trunk.  It seems very useful to
those who have several mail addresses.  Than you.
