Are you saying that in order to send through this server the domain on your rfc821 (envelope) "From" needs to be say [email protected], and you want your rfc822 (user-visible/letter) "From:" to be say [email protected]? And, that the server doesn't allow you to not set things this way if you authenticate? [corporate servers sometimes do this to minimize non-work-related usage.] Most email clients don't let you do that. About the closest that I can come up with in K9 - but you probably won't like it - is to set up an identity. When doing that, set the "email address" to what the server wants ([email protected]), but the "reply-to" to your "real" email address ([email protected]). The recipient will see the "server-required" (@xyz.net) email address, but *most* replies will go to your "real" (@zip.ac.uk) one. Automated replies (e.g., out-of-office) will almost always go to the "server-required" (@xyz.net) address. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the K-9 Mail Users List.
