Summary: post log entries show envelope sender, not From:

Initial Comment:
The interpolation dictionary used with the
SMTPDirect.py log messages includes 'sender' which is
obtained with the Message.get_sender() method. If
mm_cfg.USE_ENVELOPE_SENDER is Yes, this method returns
the envelope sender which, since this is an outgoing
message, is always the listname-bounces address. Since
'listname' is already in the dictionary, this is redundant.

It would be more useful, at least for lists which
aren't anonymous, to override this behavior and get the
sender with get_sender(use_envelope=0) which would
return the From: address.

The patch makes this change.

This has been fixed differently from the patch that was
here. The patch would always use the From:, but the fix
correctly calls msg.get_sender() without forcing
use_envelope=0; it just does it earlier.

The fix is in CVS.
