Think I figured the problem out.  Mail can be delivered locally, without postfix or any other MTA running.  The From field is not under the control of postfix.

I didn't have a "search" or "domain" line in /etc/resolv.conf.  Mutt uses that file to get a host and domain name.  

Usually, I use DHCP, but for this, the IP address is static, as I said.  DHCP overwrites /etc/resolv.conf, so I don't look at it.
