Not really.
Just add a From to the mail headers.
What's the problem?
In fact, we go one better in gcc-land. The quoted name we use in the 
from is a spamprotected version of the person who submitted the 
change/bug (if it's available).

So you'll see
Return-Path: dberlin at gcc.gnu.org (So i get the bounces)
From: "taylor at candd dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc.gnu.org>


This appears in most mail readers as "taylor at candd dot org", but 
will reply to the inbound email handler that auto-appends emails to 
comments.
