You can force Pine to use X-X-sender instead of Sender:
----
                       FEATURE: use-sender-not-X-Sender

Normally Pine adds a header line labeled X-X-Sender, if the sender is
different from the From: line. The standard specifies that this header
line should be labeled Sender, not X-X-Sender. Setting this feature
causes Sender to be used instead of X-X-Sender.
-----

This (X-X-sender) should be the default and prevents problems like you
mention. This is using Pine 'standalone' (i.e. with a SMTP-server
defined), all bets are off when using Pine interfacing directly with for
example /usr/lib/sendmail because then other policies might apply.
