Edit From address and name

blackbadger · 19 Jun 2004, 05:57 AM

I find setting up personalities somewhat frustrating, especially when i've typed up an email and realise i want to send it 'from' another address i haven't set-up as a personality yet. I have to go into personalities and setup a new one and then refresh the email composition page...its a pain.

I say...text box that appears (like when creating new folder in file hosting) on the advanced screen that lets u enter any from address and name you like.

Fastmail already has this. (I don't know if this is already in the FAQ...I think it is.)

Click the "Change" button next to the From line, and you can type in any address you like.

BTW, another way: write "Something#else" in the To field, and Check Names. "Something" goes in the To field, "else" (which can be a zero-length string, i.e. "Something#") goes in the From field.
