I'm guessing from the lack of any replies so far that there's no workaround for this problem. If that's the case, please could one of the developers let me know whether this can be fixed in a future release fairly quickly? If so, I'll live with it for a short while. If not, I'll be very reluctantly forced to find a new email client for my phone. I find this new lack of functionality intolerable, but as I love K-9 Mail's other features, I'd like to stick with it, as long as this problem can be addressed reasonably quickly.
