Description jcmcgil 2011-04-15 22:37:38 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

I have multiple mail IDs.  So far, I was happy with my default ID.  Now I need to be able to send by an alternate ID (I can receive correctly).  When I send, the ID header is the default ID even though it is going to a different transport.  I have changed the COMPOSER toolbar to add the "FROM" for the header.  When invoked, it displays a blank ID Header - no selection of the various available IDs.  I looked in the Handbook and can find no instruction on how to pre-populate and/or change to automatically to valid IDs.

Can you help?  Or how to remove the default from the default ID?

  

Reproducible: Didn't try


Actual Results:  
Send to valid transport with wrong ID header.

Not an issue. If you want to change the used identity when composing a message, use view/identity instead.

The 'From' field will change automatically when you switch the identity
