Steps to reproduce:
Click on "Create message" and in the message compose window on the from address (identity)
Actual results:
It opens a list with selectable "From:" identities (see attached screenshot)
You cannot filter.
If You have many (e.g. 50) different identities, like me, You have to search with your eyes for the one you want to select, which is stressful, no good user experience.
Expected results:
When the list of selectable identities is shown, the user should be able to type, and the list will shrink and only show those identities that match on the typed string. When the user hits Backspace, the filter is shortended, and the list gets longer again.
BTW if there is already such a possibility, take this bug report as user feedback that I did find it and it should be easier for the user.

This RFE makes perfect sense to me. Not sure how hard it would be to implement that, the From field is a bit intricate already with the dropdown and "Customize" option. RFE requires something like autocomplete, but showing the full list initially.
