 Sorry, do you mean it can't be made smaller than your screen height or
something else?

 I've just fixed this bug a few days ago, please try the very latest cvs,
it should work there.

 This could be due to the same bug but I'm (much) less sure about it. I
think it could indeed simply lose the identity information... In fact, I'm
almost sure it does as when it sends message from the outbox there is no
way it could know what was the identity you used for composing it :-(

MJ> Is there another, better approach to using more than one SMTP-server ?

 You can also assign different SMTP servers to different folders (this is
what I do) but this would suffer from the same bug: it works when sending
directly but not when using outbox. The only solution I see is to save the
identity used for composing the message in the message itself and remove it
from there when sending it from Outbox. This is a bit of a hack but I don't
see anything else.

 Please enter a bug for this so that I don't forget to fix it.

 Thanks,
