Unfortunately, Envelope-To is not a required field according to RFC2822 and
in my experience it is rarely present.  See
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2822.html.  That header is not even mentioned
once.  Is there a Sendmail modification you've used to make the envelope
address available via that header?  Or am I missing something?
