this via adding code and recompiling, rather than via a rewrite rule).

There's probably something wrong with using

   H?l?Envelope-From: $g
   H?l?Envelope-To: $u

for this purpose but I can't spot it after some quick tests.  Caveat:
It's likely necessary that you not have the m flag in your Mlocal
definition.

Regardless of whether the local mailer has the 'm' flag, this doesn't
work.  Sendmail simply doesn't set the $u variable at all if there are
multiple recipients.  As for the Envelope-From: header, that's what
Return-Path: is supposed to be.  If you don't have it, then your
sendmail.cf is too old and probably broken in other ways as well, as
this was added/fixed before sendmail V8 came out.
