No, I checked this and you've got it wrong. The account in E'rage is
determined by the account that received the message. In this case, the
message is sent 'To:' mac.com and is redirected by mac.com to my btinternet
address. It is therefore my btinternet address that received the mail and it
is 'owned' by that account. If I reply to the message the reply has the
btinternet account and address. I could get round this by using a 'reply
from mac.com' script, but that relies on me remembering (or checking) the
origin of each message. If I can do that it is easy enough to switch the
account of the reply manually!
I'll take a closer look at your script and see how it works in practice.
That may be sufficient of a work-around to hold over until E'rage 9.0.1 is
released ;-)
