what am i missing here? (if i manually change the field in the "create message" page of sqwebmail as i've described above, it works the way i want, but making changes in userdb doesn't seem to do it)
I think since you already logged in, the From field gets set in sqwebmail-config in the Maildir so any changes to userdb won't take effect, except for new users that you add, since SqWebMail is already reading it from there.
