    I can do that here with 1.36.  See, this one should, in theory, be sent
from my corp account.  ;)

    Personally I just move it to the other account and reply from there.
*shrug*.  I really dislike the whole concept of personalities since it is a
cop-out by the programmers to get away from doing the right thing.  Besides,
as I said, I can change the from.

    Or drag-and-drop to the other account and reply from there.

    Minor, at best.  The only downside if this does come from my corp account
is that my sig didn't change.
