Hi,

On inspecting my sent messages -- either using rmail, or just viewing the file as plain text -- I notice that each is prepended with a header
that looks like the following:

  From nobody Thu Feb  8 08:23:10 2024

This looks like part of the Mbox format specification. Email readers use this "From " line to determine the start of a new message. See the Wikipedia article[1] for details.

Now, about how to modify this, I don't know.
