User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/116.0

Steps to reproduce:

Create two account identities, for example "Bill" and "Ben".
Set "Bill" to "Compose messages in HTML format" and "Ben" to compose in non HTML format.
Compose two new messages, one using account identity "Bill" the other "Ben".

Actual results:

Observe that both messages are composed using the composition mode set for their parent account, not the modes set for the individual identities.
IE, if the parent account is set to HTML format both identities use HTML, and if the parent account is set to non HTML format both identities use non HTML.

Expected results:

Composition mode should obey the individually set mode for each identity.

Reporter,
Are you seeing this also with version 115.9.0 or newer?

Excuse me if I ask a stupid question: How exactly do you do that?

Composition mode should obey the individually set mode for each identity.

If I reply to an e-mail that is addressed to the 2nd identity, this 2nd identity is set as the sender here. The HTML setting is then also taken into account. So: works for me.
