The error message was the From: field in a new email:

  From    : Roger Price <roger@rogerprice.org>,
            UNEXPECTED_DATA_AFTER_ADDRESS@".SYNTAX-ERROR."

I had forgotten the comma.  With a comma I now get

  Customized Headers                  = From: Roger Price <roger@rogerprice.org>
                                        Cc: Roger Price <roger@rogerprice.org>

and the correct headers.

Roger
