I have this little problem with VM (It occurs in both 5.32 and 4.??).
OK, I'm assuming it is in VM since my other mailer (not part of
gnuemacs) doesn't exhibit this behavior.

It goes like this: whenever I have one person multiply listed in an
alias, mail sent by me to that alias makes me look like THEM.

For example, a few lines from my .mailrc

    alias dbms pes rak gmg
    alias qp   pes rlb
    alias grp  dbms qp

OK so far.  When I send mail, then, to "grp" everyone gets the mail,
and just once.  But, the mailheader has been mangled so as to make it
look like the mail was sent by "pes".

Any ideas?
