Setting From header based on To header
Hi, I have a mail account with aliased mail addresses, i.e., mails sent to me.someth...@example.com, me.somethinge...@example.com, etc. are delivered to m...@example.com. The To header indicates which alias an email was sent to, e.g, me.someth...@example.com. I was looking for a way to set the From header based on the To header when replying in mutt. This way I could set From to me.someth...@example.com when To was me.someth...@example.com. But I couldn't find a way to achieve this when reading on the various configuration settings regarding the From header. How could one approach this? Currently I edit the From header manually when composing the reply message. Jens
