This problem broke my procmail Bcc recipe that filed my outgoing emails into an IMAP copy folder. After much head banging at about 2 AM one morning, I fixed this problem by recompiling ssmtp.c after changing: int FromLineOverride = NO; to: int FromLineOverride = YES; Subsequently, I found that sstmp.conf should be able to set this option at runtime by including the following line: FromLineOverride=YES Note however that I have never actually verified this fact. If the generate_config shell script included the above commented out like it is found in the sample sstmp.conf, it would have saved me much grief. Sigh...
