From: Changes on Reply with Multiple Accounts

Post by andykw »

When replying to an email in a conversation, the system resets the current email account to the default, and not retaining the email being used in the conversation.

Example:
You have multiple accounts: xxx@xxx.com and yyy@yyy.com
- email 1
From: yyy@yyy.com
To:anyone@anything.com
....
- email 2
From:anyone@anything.com
To: yyy@yyy.com

- email 3 - by pressing replying button:
From: xxx@xxx.com
To:anyone@anything.com

When a reply is made with multiple accounts, there should be a way to retain the one email - i.e. - If I have a started a conversation with a client on my business email, and another conversation with a friend on a personal email account, then when I reply to the business client it should not use my default account (yes, I know that is what "default" technically means, but this is not how it *should* work).

Thanks

Wow - closer to this one:

*** 8 year old bug!!! ***

This should get fixed - it is very frustrating, and with today's users integrating more work and personal items, it is glaringly bad that SeaMonkey Mail hasn't corrected this issue yet.
