These are all in SMTPDirect.py, but they are tricky because bounce 
processing is involved. See 
<http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq02.003.htp> 
for some discussion of this.

There was also a recent discussion of sender header munging on this 
list. See 
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2006-April/thread.html>, 
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2006-May/thread.html> 
and 
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-developers/2006-July/thread.html>, 
and look for threads "Sender field" and "effects of not rewriting the 
Sender header".
