Fascinating.
No real idea.
I just hit "reply to list" on a message from tom (probably a reply to a
message from you?).
So from earlier experience with such operations, I would not have
expected to not show up as sender or from of the message.

So yes it was me posting and I have no idea on what actually caused a
false from to end up there.....
