I found this from the postilion home page (http://www.postilion.org) under "nagging bugs" (!) : "Entering a Full Name , or user@domain.tld (Full Name) format address in the preferences widget will not work properly. Setting the address in the format user@domain.tld (Full Name) in each mailbox's configuration will work. To do this, open the "Mailboxes" window, select the mailbox, right-click, choose "Edit" from the menu, and enter your address in the From: and, optionally, the Reply-to: fields." Worth a try. Alternatively, bite the bullet and find a MUA that works.
