I have a from field in my contact form like so:
<label for="from">Your E-Mail:</label>
<input name="from" type="text" id="Email"/>However, EE seems to be trying to set the actual email “FROM” header to this value. Obviously this gets flagged as spam since my server isn’t permitted to send emails from just any email address. Gmail subsequently sends a failure notice when it catches it. What am I missing here?

In that case you’ll probably have to pass a valid email sending to address in a hidden field and add the senders address as form message data..
<input type="hidden" name="from" value="[email protected]">
<label for="from">Your E-Mail:</label>
<input type="email" id="from" name="message[]" />
