This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

I am running emacs -q to avoid customization related issues. mail-fcc did insert
a From field with Emacs <= 20.
Thanks,

mail-do-fcc writes the From: header if it is present in the message
composition buffer. What does `C-h v send-mail-function' say?
For sendmail-send-it, a From: header is inserted unless
mail-from-style is set to system-default.
For smtpmail-send-it, a From: header is inserted unless
mail-from-style is something other than angles, parens, or nil.
For feedmail-send-it, a From: header may be inserted depending on the
value of feedmail-from-line.
For post-mail-send-it, a From: header is not inserted.

I suspect that difference between sendmail-send-it and
smtpmail-send-it is unintentional, as is this other difference in the
handling of the From: header:
* sendmail-send-it checks for non-ASCII characters in the fullname and
escapes them using rfc2047-encode-string; smtpmail-send-it does not.
Perhaps that section (starting with the following comment) should be
modularized into its own mail-do-from function that both *-send-it
functions could call (like mail-do-fcc).
;; Put the "From:" field in unless for some odd reason
;; they put one in themselves.
