ok thanks, folder-hook is the one, but...
I've had to stop postfix setting the From/Sender header (was set
in the canonical file) but mutt doesn't seem to set those fields.

My .muttrc has (ignoring the folder-hook bit for a minute):
set from=davidf@nospam.smartchat.net.au
my_hdr From: davidf@nospam.smartchat.net.au
my_hdr Sender: davidf@nospam.smartchat.net.au
my_hdr Reply-To: davidf@nospam.smartchat.net.au

But trying to send email outside my system gives the error:

Now is it referring to the Sender or From header? (note: "Reply-To:"
and "From:" get set ok just not "From" (without the colon) and "Sender").
cos in the example email they're both "davidf@nospam.spiral" and no matter
what I set in my .muttrc I can't get them set to anything else.

A related annoying thing is that hitting reply (in mutt) to my own
test message comes up with davidf@nospam.spiral in the To header - meaning
even if these emails did get out, people wouldn't be able to reply.

Dave.
