Try (setq message-sendmail-f-is-evil t) -- does that help?

Sigh.  Lars thinks that Gnus can do a perfect job of computing the
Sender header, every time.  So no customization would be needed.  This
might be true for news (I cannot say since I don't know), but I
believe that it is not true for mail.  In fact, the computer cannot
know who is the Sender of a mail message, according to the RFC822
meaning of Sender.
