The From header is header by your mail delivery agent. Assuming that
is sendmail or a sendmail clone, you would use the -f sendmail option.
This can be enabled by putting something like
variable SendMail_Cmd
= "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -oem -odb -f foo@xxxxxxx"
in your .jedrc file. The above assumes that sendmail is in /usr/sbin.

I do not see how without limiting flexibility. For example, what is a
paragraph? TeX and LaTex have one notion, email messages have
another, and so on.
