I'm no expert for this, but once you happen not to have the same "To:" to be used as "From:", what should mutt do, i.e. there is no check whether all tagged msgs contain the same and _only_ 1 of your alternates? What should happen if 2 of your alternates are in the recipients? The special case that it indeed is only the same 1 ... needs a patch. Therefore not bug, but missing feature. Are you sure it isn't just picking the 1st reverse_name rather than a default (which might be the same as your default so you can't notice)? Use a completely different addr from the alternates as your default. If that is the case, then you must pay attention to tag'em in the right order. -- © Rado S. -- You must provide YOUR effort for your goal! EVERY effort counts: at least to show your attitude.
