I had just this in the header:

    "Date: Wed, Jun 11\n",
    "To: <valid_recipient_email_id> \n",
    "From: <some_invalid_email_id> (Example User)\n",
    "Subject: test email\n",
    "\n",
    "\n"

The <valid_recipient_email_id> was of course a valid recipient email address and <some_invalid_email_id> corresponding to some invalid (non-existent) address such as abc_at_xyz.com

Thanks,
Naveen
