When a reply to a newsgroup message is composed and then reopened, it has a
different From: address.

2.Save the reply (to your Drafts folder).
3.Open the reply.

Actual Results:  
The opened message has a different From: email address than the one it was saved
with.

I think this is a duplicate bug but I couldn't find the first report.

Do you know the bug# that it's a duplicate of?

Comment 5

I would say bug 59548. But we have also bug 99217 which suffer from the same
problem. maybe I should set those 2 bugs as dependent of bug 59548!
