           Summary: evolution uses wrong smtp server when replying to mail
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: evolution
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: olemke at core-dump.info
         QAContact: desktop-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


I have two mail accounts defined in evolution. One for work and one for private
mail. The smtp server defined for my work address is not accessible from the
outside. When I'm at home and reply to a mail that was sent to my address at
work, I change my outgoing account in the 'From' dropdown box to my private
account. I would expect that evolution will now use the smtp server of my
private account. But it doesn't. It still tries to send the mail through my smtp
server at work.

Workaround: If I remove the sender's address of the original mail from the To:
field and type it in again and then send the mail, evolution uses the correct
smtp server.
