Hello Nicolas,

Try using the -r argument 

  -r address
              Sets the From address. Overrides any from variable specified in environment or startup files.  Tilde escapes are disabled.  The -r address options are passed to the mail transfer agent unless SMTP is
              used.  This option exists for compatibility only; it is recommended to set the from variable directly instead.
