I just tried to a message without a From: header by talking to
sendmail directly. Sendmail automatically created a From: header,
using the envelope sender.
Here is some extracts from the test (indentation added by me):
kleene% telnet smtp smtp
mail from: amanda
250 amanda... Sender ok
rcpt to: abraham
250 abraham... Recipient ok
help data
data
354 Enter mail, end with "." on a line by itself
test
.
250 NAA26313 Message accepted for delivery
