Gnus can't distinguish between this case and the case where you manually enter a different From address that still refers to you; the case could be made that Gnus should never add Sender automatically for mail messages (except when there are multiple From addresses - in that case, Gnus should definitely add Sender: user-mail-address). But it wouldn't do any harm to add Sender in these ambiguous cases as well. In all cases, if Sender is added automatically, its contents should be user-mail-address, but this applies only for mail, not news. paul
