If my fuzzy memory is correct, the billing software we wrote at MessagingDirect 
used to do something like

  From: Some Company <billing(_at_)example(_dot_)com> (Txid: 999-000-12345)

where the comment field contained a unique transaction ID.  We did it that way 
because most MUAs print the <display-name> in the mailbox summary, in 
preference to the <comment>.  This was circa 2000.  I don't know if it still 
does that, or if anyone even uses that software any more.
