Hi,

I have a domain with catch all address. 

I have default send from address as john@mydomain.com. When i press new message or hit reply , from is john@mydomain.

With catch all setup, some email would be addressed email1@mydomain.com, email2@mydomain etc...

Is it possible than when i hit reply button on email, the from address would be set to "to" address of email i'm replying to ( for example email1@mydomain.com), instead of sender defined in account settings?

Thanks, Mario

Thunderbird 'sees' your message as coming from the 'real' email address. As such, that is the default response. You still can, when responding, use the drop-down menu on FROM to select the desired alias. If there is an addon for this, I am not aware of it.

OK, I am impressed. I've never seen such creativity on an issue. Congratulations for your innovation. Is this something that can be shared? Interesting. :)

Not public addon yet, as i need to test a bit, and catch all edge cases. And add option to enable only for specific accounts....
