Because I can guarantee  that some pencil-neck weenie who  desperately
needs  to be swatted   reppeatedly  with a clue-by-four  will  *still*
override that and  send directly to the  poster, who's name appears in
the From:

At least here, we have a *big* problem with users, who once you e-mail
them about ONE THING,  will then mail  you directly  about EVERYTHING,
even   if it's not your   job and they  should go  through our support
channels instead.
