Description Christoph Anton Mitterer 2012-08-13 16:29:11 UTC
Hi.

Long missing features to make Evolution an at least somewhat professionally 
usable MUA would be per-contact (be it a person or a ML) settings at least for
the following:

Depending on the recipient contacts, a sending address (i.e. one of the users accounts) should be configurable.
If sending to more than one recipient, which do not ALL have the same sending address configured, the normal global default account should be used.


Cheers,
Chris.


btw: Whenever I said "contact", it should be configurable per "object in the
address book" (applying for all it's configured email addresses)... but also be
overridable for selective email addresses for a given object.
E.g. I have two addresses from a person, one home, one work email.
It's totally valid, that one may never expect encrypted mails from work, but
always from home.... and also to have different languages at both, etc. pp.

That's bug 356245 so I feel like closing this as a duplicate.

That would depend on fixing bug 356245 first.

Well than mark it as duplicate... and perhaps you can copy over the idea from the 2nd paragraph?


btw: Sorry for all these (more or less) dups... but the evolution bug log has grown so big,... and it's often hard to tell from the titles what's actually behind them.


Cheers,
Chris.
