As long as you're sending just your own messages, you don't need
Sender at all.  (You can read RFC 2822, 3.6.2 for yourself to confirm
that the require Rat claims is there, isn't.)  It's all a lot simpler
than this thread makes it out to be.

Don't do that unless you control the SMTP server, and know that it
won't generate Message-IDs using that same RHS.  See my other message
for more details.
