I'm wondering if there is some simple way in KMail of changing the From: address in a one-off way, I mean so that most email comes from a default address, but one can give an alternative address if one wishes. As far as I can see, the From: address is set as part of the users "Identity". I suppose one could have a second KMail account with a different Identity, but that would be cumbersome. But first I will check if the college mailman does just look at the From: address, as you suggest. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
