Benny,

I've noticed a couple of times that MailMate has this annoying habit.

Imagine I've got the following e-mail accounts:

Work

[email protected]
[email protected]

Personal

[email protected]                         (This doesn't exist, but work with me 
here ...)
[email protected]         (This account I'm sending from)

I've noticed that if I compose a message from my

earle@workmailserver-test

account (with outbound SMTP set to go out the test server) and it's intended for my

earle@workmailserver

account (with outbound SMTP set to go out the ops server), MailMate will override the sending account and short-circuit it to change the outbound account to send it from

earle@workmailserver

and send it from that account via the ops server instead of the test server.

Similarly, if I try send to an e-mail from "[email protected]" to

[email protected] (Again, this is not a real account, just for illustration)

it will change the sending e-mail account to the Yahoo! Mail account and send it out through Yahoo!'s outbound mail server instead of my Mailhub outbound SMTP server.

This is incredibly annoying when you are trying to do testing (work mail server vs. test work mail server) or debugging problems (e.g. problems sending mails to other Yahoo! Mail accounts from your non-Yahoo! account).

Is there some secret Terminal "defaults write" command that will stop it from overriding what I'm trying to do? If not, does

Preferences ->
Composer ->
New Message: Default account is [ derived from context ]

control that behavior?

Thanks,

                - Greg
