RT's default is to put the 'Actor's name in the From: when replying.
So, if you get an Autoreply from our RT system, it would come in as 
the Queue's Description followed by the correspond address.
From: "Bugs in RT" <rt-bugs at ....>
but if I reply to a ticket, the mail would come out as
From: "Kevin Falcone via RT" <rt-bugs at ...>

Keep in mind, your mail client may have remembered that the first mail
it ever saw came from Helpdesk Support, so check that this isn't a
client issue rather than something RT is generating.

Of course, it's possible to configure RT to always send the queue's
description by changing templates, and folks do that.

You're already doing something interesting because RT's default is to
include that via RT.  Go check your templates and your
FriendlyFromLine settings.  You may also want to clarify *where*
you're seeing this header.
