If you mean me, that's true, you can have any (??) number of mailboxes in 
Mozilla (it would be cool to have roles there, instead to force you to 
setup different mailboxes for each From: address).

My question was how I can have:
- an user-specified From: address and
- a valid local-server-based envelope address.
I considered this was in the line with the distinction between MTA and 
MSA, but I haven't found any pointers in the sendmail README's or google.

Cuold be.  I didn't have the original quesiton in my trash when I stumbled 
on the settings at home. (This is my work account)

You do need to set up the account for each From: address, and it's a 
roundabout way to specify what outbound server to use (if you need to use 
different servers for each account).  But if there are a limited number of 
addresses you would send from, it could be an option.  If many accounts 
would be needed, it would be very cumbersome.

I suppose something could be scripted that creates a text file that could 
then be dumped on a mail server via port 25 that filled in the Mail from: 
and header from: information on the fly.

[Mimedefang] MUA for multiple senders

2004-08-10 Thread WBrown
The other day someone asked about an MUA that would support sending from 
different addresses.  Last night I was looking at my Mozilla Thunderbird 
setup where I have my primary home accoount, as well as my rarely used ISP 
email account configured in the same client.  If I selected the inbox for 
my ISP account, and then composed a message, the sender was shown as my 
ISP email address.  In my primary account, it used that email address. 

Hope this helps the person that was recently asking about this.

(This was on Windows, say whether this works in other versions)
