Is there any way to *suppress* the replacement of the source hostname with
the mailbox server hostname in the From line of outgoing mail?

This replacement seems to be a feature of 4.1, but I prefer my outgoing
mail to look like it comes from my machine, not the machine where my
mailbox happens to sit.
