804112 - Support for disposable addresses (like in yahoo!).

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Thunderbird :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Sergio]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:16.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/16.0
Build ID: 20121011153947

Steps to reproduce:

I just found out today that yahoo had IMAP support and Thunderbird set it up automatically. Worked just fine.


Actual results:

yahoo has a feature for disposable email addresses and I use it with different mailing lists.
The problem is that I need to use those addresses to reply to the lists, not my main email address.


Expected results:

I thought of a feature where we would be able to set a list of 'alias' addresses for outgoing email.
Then we don't need to setup a different account for each disposable email address (I actually haven't even tried that yet).

I don't know how it would work, maybe use the same settings from the main yahoo account but with a different From: address.

It's already in the product and called Identities.
