Not really. it would be a good thing to have. I have a rather ancient script
called "Other Account" which operates off a schedule run every minute (or
whenever) changing the account of draft messages you're writing to specific
recipients. There's one called Mailing List Account, which I use myself,
which does the same thing for messages I'm writing to mailing lists, which i
use myself. (My default account, which is what every "New" message is set
to, will send messages that get bounced back from all my mailing lists, so
this script changes the account to the correct one as I'm writing them. It
works 100%.) You could maybe use "Other Account" or do something similar.
I actually have a pair of scripts that do exactly what you want, called
Reply Rerouted Account and Reply All Rerouted Account, if you're willing to
get used to using control-R for reply and and shift-control-R for reply-all.
On all other accounts they just do an ordinary reply, but on the accounts
you preset, they reply from a different account as directed. However, since
you use more than one email client, this might get confusing for you and is
probably not a good idea. Sorry - can't think of anything else at the
moment. If you want to look those scripts over for ideas, they're at
