Regardless, I would personally have no problem with the "old way" of determining the account if Evo 1.0.8 (SuSE 7.3 build for me) actually figured out the account to send mail from if my email isn't in the To: or Cc: fields. However, right now the behavior for me is to use the default account if it isn't found there, when it seems it should then check the X-Evolution-Source header. Just my 2 cents.
