This is the symptom of an 'encoding' mechanism, such as 'quoted printable'
being used on the headers. The program you use to read or forward the mail is 'decoding' the header, so you only see the plain text.

Use a text editor to view the original (unforwarded) mail in your inbox
see what the 'From:' header *really* looks like....
