The envelope from isn't empty, it's just not passing from Sendmail to
Mlmmj properly.

Strangely, Mlmmj doesn't look for a Unix/mbox "From " line to extract an
envelope from address. I actually think this is an Mlmmj shortcoming,
and I will attempt to address it in a future release.

However, Mlmmj does look for a Return-Path header, and that is
conspicuously missing from the headers you posted. Did you include

define(`LOCAL_SHELL_FLAGS', `eu9P')dnl

in your Sendmail config as per <http://mlmmj.org/docs/readme-sendmail/>?

It's the capital P that is necessary to include the Return-Path header.

Best regards,

Ben.
