The sanitizer uses formail to format the reply headers. Formail uses
the Return-Path: header if it is available, and the Klez worms I've
seen in my quarantine all seem to have valid Return-Path: headers. I
have noticed (now that I'm looking) that they do differ from the From:
headers, but they do seem to correspond more closely to the Received:
chain than the From: header address does.
I think the sanitizer is indeed responding to the correct address.
Check the headers in your notification messages, and the To: address
in your copy of the notify_sender message.
