That's what happens when you migrate .emacs from release to release over a 
period of years; you end up with stuff that is no longer necessary.  On the 
other hand, the above elisp (in emacs 20.3 rmail) doesn't insert the From: 
line until the mail is sent.  I like to see it during message composition.
