Or perhaps a better plan of attack is to decouple the SMTP account definition from the actual IMAP accounts…in essence the ability to create SMTP account profiles that then can be attached to a given IMAP account. Think of how awesome this would be. Define the SMTP server account once and then use it across several IMAP accounts.

That is a very different and better feature. It has been years since I last suggested it to Benny, and I don't remember how or if he responded. The one downside I can see with it comes from supporting Apple Mail users. Users who don't have a strong understanding of how email works are sometimes confused by its implementation.

Another problem is that some sites are starting to configure the DMARC anti-spam protocol to reject email where the SMTP server does not match the From: address.
