Dunno, I don't see your config :-).
Correct Way #1 :
.muttrc :
set realname="dman" from='dman@dman.ddts.net'
set use_from # <- This is important!
Correct Way #2 :
/etc/email-addresses :
# Note : this is a localuser -> external address mapping
dman: dsh8290@rit.edu
I'm using the first one now (and no, my username is not a "trusted"
user in exim's eyes).
