I'm having a problem with this feature, too.

I have two main email accounts, one for personal email and one for
work email.  My before-edit.rb hook figures out which account to use
as the sender (the "From" header) by looking at the recipients (the
"To" header).  This worked with sup 0.12, but with 0.13 the sender is
changed back to the default as soon as I exit the editor.

I see that Sascha Silbe said something about this seven months ago:

Here's the sanitized before-edit.rb hook, in case that helps:

unless header["In-reply-to"]
  if header["To"] =~ /widgets/
    to = header["To"]
    info "Sending as widgets, to = #{to}"
    header["From"] = "Mark Alexander <marka@widgets.com>"
  else
    to = header["To"]
    info "Sending as pobox, to = #{to}"
    header["From"] = "Mark Alexander <marka@pobox.com>"
  end
end
