And if you respond "no" and then fix the FROM address to something
sensible, what happens then?

On my machine, up comes Outlook and I can paste the message and send
it.

If the complaint is that with send-mail-function being
mailclient-send-it, Emacs should not bitch at you about the bogus FROM
address, then please say so explicitly.  You just got me looking for a
non-existent problem in 2 different builds, before I realized that you
never said you couldn't send the message.

If you cannot send the message through your mail client even after you
fix the FROM header, then I cannot reproduce the problem here (with 2
builds, one from today, the other from May 29).
