Description Kumaran Santhanam 2011-01-26 06:30:41 UTC 
Currently, the From: field is populated by the selected identity.  It would be useful to have an option to edit the From: field such as in Kontact.  The use-case for this is a user who may have dynamic aliases (user+alias@domain.com) but does not want to create a separate identity for every email that is sent.
