Here is a workaround using the unix mail command part of the mailutils package, http://www.mailutils.org/: 1) Copy the following script to a directory which is part of your PATH environment variable, like <homedir>/bin. Make it executable via chmod or using your file browser. #### mymailto_ex.sh "<from_addr>" "<to_addr>" "<subj>" "<content>" #! /bin/bash echo "$4" | mail -s "$3" "$2" --append="From: $1" ~/mailspool ############### 2) Create an evolution account with Server Type "Local Delivery" under "Receiving mail" and choose a file in your home directory, like <homedir>/mailspool for Configuration. 3) Create an inbox mail filter which moves all mail whose source account is the one from the previous step to the Outbox of your main account through which you send your mail. 4) Now you can create a custom alarm using "Run a program", setting the above mymailto_ex.sh as the program and the argument list, in quotation marks, like in the comment line of the script above.
