OK we can say then that in Linux an e-mail program will use the login name as 
the host name for e-mailing unless a program like sylpheed has it built-in not 
to do so or one takes special efforts to pinch a program not to do it. Which 
means the easiest way out is to use ones 'login name' as 'host name' or 
vis-versa.

I am aware of this feature and use it when I put the From: alias in the 
header. And I was mistaken earlier that exmh will not accept Reply-To:. I must 
have made a typo when I tried it. Then based on your earlier mail it is better 
to use Reply-To: than From: in the mail header.

Thanks & regards
