Hi Martin

It was a while back when I used thunderbird. Sending a mail then oft meant 
changing the default server in order to send from another account which I 
felt was a pain. Do you still have to edit the mail server in order to send 
from another account? That one server back then was linked to one email 
account, i.e. one smtp account. Then I had to edit it to reflect the server 
(email account) I needed to send through. And when you're on multiple email 
lists and some expect mail to come from certain email addresses. Well, it 
just didn't work back then. Maybe they've improved it since the year + since 
I last used it
