Description

A year ago I asked for the ReplyTo field... now it's another one: the "sender" field.

The reason is almost the same (not the mail adress given in the form as mail sender) with a little difference: a customer wants to have the mail address from the form in the mail client "from" column... (which is not the case with replyTo.

So I ask for the support of another field which is (technically) a step forward for TYPO3 mailform:

Possibility to configure a "Sender" (not the "from") - because the author of a mail does only press "submit" on the form but does not send the mail with his mail client - so technically the website owner or webhoster does send the mail which can be written in the mail so it also passes SPF without problems.

wikipedia:
Sender: Address of the actual sender acting on behalf of the author listed in the From: field (secretary, list manager, etc.).

It's allowed to have more than one from (author) - but only one sender.

Since "senderEmail" and "senderName" is already used in tx_form we need another expression - a renaming (fromEmail,fromName or authorEmail, authorName) seems not to be an option (even if the technical expressions are different).

Maybe techsendEmail and techsendName (or realsender...) - inputs are welcome.

There is already a setSender in the Swiftmailer library. so the function to implement is almost the same as setFrom but IMHO without the Field option... (you don't want the "sender" to be dynamic...). I can send the patch, when the variable name is found....
