It didn't here, but I probably did something differently.

I found out how to get rid of it. Apparently, it is shown if you have 
specified a Reply-to address for your identity. In your case it does not 
really seem to be necessary because your Reply-to address is identical to your 
From address. So, unless you see a need for explicitly specifying the Reply-to 
address in your identity, I'd clear the Reply-to address in your identity 
(under Advanced).

Since Reply-to is implemented as alternative to To, CC, BCC (which I find 
weird) it's probably not easy to add support for hiding it. But you could 
still submit a "bug" for it.
