Nothing to do with Dovecot, but I figured this is the best place to ask. Do any of the newer versions of Outlook have proper identities support like Thunderbird, mutt, Roundcube, i.e. every other mail client on Earth? We have customers who set up ten different mailboxes for one person because otherwise Outlook won't Do the Right Thing. Is there some way to make it behave like the others? * When sending new mail, you can choose which address to use. * When replying to mail, it sends from the address that the message was sent to by default. * All mail winds up in one inbox. Outlook (2003, 2007) does do this if you set up different mail accounts, but we shouldn't have to do that.

We ended writing a little PyObjc application that adds support for full identities to Mail.app, but it is just a hack and dunno if it will work forever :/ A.
