I _think_ --suppress-from just means "I know what I'll be
sending out, so do not bother my mailbox with a copy of this
message", so what the patch tries to do makes perfect sense to
me.

By the way, I noticed that in the header part we pick CC: and
From: address, which are rfc2047 quoted, and unquote it to
compare with the sender.  If they are different, we push the
address, still rfc2047 quoted, to @cc, like this:

	} elsif (/^(Cc|From):\s+(.*)$/) {
		if (unquote_rfc2047($2) eq $sender) {
			next if ($suppress_from);
		}
		elsif ($1 eq 'From') {
			$author = unquote_rfc2047($2);
		}
		printf("(mbox) Adding cc: %s from line '%s'\n",
			$2, $_) unless $quiet;
		push @cc, $2;
	}

However, in the body part, when we see S-o-b: and CC: address,
which are _not_ rfc2047 quoted, do not unquote to compare with
$sender and we push it direct to @cc (the original text in the
first hunk of your patch).  We do the same for output from
$cc_cmd if specified (the second hunk).

This means that @cc list would be a mixed bag.  Some are rfc2047
quoted, and some are not.  This inconsistency of course is taken
care of by the call to sanitize_address over @cc at the very
beginning of send_message(), but it somehow feels dirty.
