Hi,
I asked this via information request, but haven't gotten any response
to it yet, maybe some of you have faced similar situations and found a
way to work with them...
----
I've been looking for a new e-mail client for quite a while, and
having tried and rejected many, it seems like The Bat! comes very very
close to what I've been seeking. If there's a way to solve the
following 2 issues. I checked the TBUL archive but couldn't really
find what I was looking for...
I have e-mail accounts at more than one ISP (5 of them, made accounts
in The Bat! for each). Ok, no problem, The Bat! can make handle
multiple accounts, I found this already, and it is working just fine
to retrieve mail from all of them.
None of the Belgium ISP's however support relaying. I get
'Relaying Denied' messages if I try. which brings me to problem 1.
1) If I have received an e-mail into one of the mailboxes of an
account which ISP I'm not connected to at the moment, I CAN retrieve
the mail, but when replying it'll fail (relaying denied). I can solve
this from the mail-edit window via Options, Active account, but I need
to change it for each message. Is there a way to "lock" which account
to use for sending messages. I don't mind the originating address to
mismatch the "from" address which they will reply to. Most aren't
smart enough to figure out how to obtain the real originating address
anyway :-)
2) I have multiple mail names at several of my mail accounts (ex.
[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] When
checking mail, I can neatly put mail for each mail name into it's own
"inbox" (inbox sales, inbox support...) folders with a filter, haven't
done that yet, but I guess it's easy enough.
But, how do I define how to set another "From:" address when I reply
to a mail from any of said inboxes. I don't see a way to do this.
When writing a mail, I can change the "From" to any of my account
names, but I can't add my other mailboxes to it.
Am I supposed to make a new mail account for each of my mail accounts
(which I get via one and the same POP3 loginname)
I haven't found an alternate way to make other "from" mail names.
