Description John Wheaton 2010-05-18 00:49:00 UTC 
Version:           1.13.2 (using 4.4.2 (KDE 4.4.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.31-21-generic

I have multiple email accounts that I segregate into different folders.

It would be great if there was a way to be able to identify a folder, or a set of folders that belong to a specific email account.  Then when I click "new message" the "From" could default to the proper account.

Thunderbird does this by separating the accounts.  If KMail can do that, I have yet to figure it out.

I hope I am simply missing a simple feature.  That would make this a much easier FR to fulfill!

Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented.
Thank you for your understanding.

Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
