Edit as a new message

Post by penguin_friend »

When I use 'Edit as a new message' command it will work OK except that From:. It seems that it will always change to the users default address. Is it possible to use the original value from the message.
Maybe it is implemented already but how do I catch this feature.

Perhaps I am misunderstanding your intention. How would it be appropriate for you to send a message indicating that it came from someone else?

Sorry but I found the solution. If I add the other account in "Manage identity" the thunderbird will copy the correct address when I use "Edit as a new message".

This will make another question. Is it possible to edit "Manage identity" outside thunderbird.
