Some mailing lists use the envelope sender instead of the actual from address,

the sendmail binary, using the address of the patch author.

At least some MTAs (exim is the one I know for sure) can restrict -f
usage to some users and deny it for others. Don't know how much this
would really be a problem, but using -f unconditionally might be a bad
idea none-the-less.
