Here’s an example of header of corresponded mail from RT. Domains and server
names changed.
“Problem” is that I can’t find a way to remove header line “Sender: Apache apache@server”
Reason I want to remove it, that it causes Outlook 2000 to show quite
confusing line as From: -field:
"From: Apache [apache@server] on behalf of Support via RT
[rt-support-test@domain]"
I’m using Sendmail (from RedHat) as mailer.
I don’t know if this is a Apache, Sendmail or RT issue, but I’d like to get
this changed.

It depends. Some MTAs insert it for you, some don’t. Some overwrite
it for you if it exists and doesn’t match the envelope address.
Basically you can’t guarantee 100% that any solution you provide
locally will work globally, because of so much crapware out there
calling itself a mail server.

The only place I see “Sender” in RT is when it is scanning the header
for it. It doesn’t seem to insert it.
