Correct. I was just digging to make sure I understood. That means that only the message sent via SMTP (actually, via tmda-sendmail) gets tagged according to your outgoing filter. The headers you provide in wanderlust will go directly to NNTP; do not pass tmda-sendmail, do not collect $200. So to cause your From field to go to Gmane untouched, you can just set it to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. Do you also want the From header of the mail message to be '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', or do you want it to reference your local machine, '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'? If the latter, then the solution is to create a rule (possibly the last rule, your default) to set your From to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and then the Reply-To will be based off of that. If, on the other hand, you want outgoing email to use the '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' From the same , I see the problem. I think you had mentioned that you're currently generating the Reply-To manually. Does wanderlust have a facility to call an external program and set a header field from its standard output? If it did, you could call tmda-address via that mechanism, so generating a dated Reply-To isn't quite so manual, and then remove the 'reply-to dated=2w' from your rule. We had, at one point, talked about providing that capability in the outgoing filter. Perhaps that would provide a more general service that could be used to solve your address problem, as well as other requests as yet unheard. Regardless of which scenario you actually want and the workaround you're currently using, I think the limitation you point out is something that we should address. Ahem.
