You can also use 'username#yourdomain', 'username/yourdomain' and 'username=yourdomain'. You will want to use the option on your identities to save outgoing messages on SMTP, and suppress saving to the phone sent folder if possible.
with iOS Mail app I use as many identities as I have written into system config.
Without a need for dummy POP etc. accounts. Whatever identity i have in FM webmail it also works in the app.
However you can not edit the ID on the fly, it needs to be earlier specified in settings.
