262667 - replying to mail sent to non-default identity does not honor bcc setting

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 260805

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a4) Gecko/20040927

I am seeing a behavior regarding bcc's and multuple identities that is probably
related to that in that bug #260805, but for mozilla rather than thunderboard.   

When I receive email, it can fall into one of three cases:

1. Destination address is the default identity.
2. Destination is one of the alternate identities.
3. Destination address is neither 1. nor 2. (Such as when all default emails
from a domain come to one specific address, which I have tested.  Or I suppose
when something comes to you as a bcc in the first place and you are not listed
at all, which I have not tested.)

When I reply in cases 1 and 3, mozilla uses the default identity as the From
address.  If I have an automatic Bcc configured for this account, it is also
added.  But in case 2, the reply is from the other identity, and the Bcc address
for the account is not added.

I would like to confirm this behavior.  I am seeing also on 1.8a4.

Second, 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Receive email from an alternate identity.
2. Hit "reply"
3.



Expected Results:  
I expect the Bcc field to be added for all alternate identities in the same
account also.  (If/when bug #247084 were implemented, I would certainly expect
it to follow that information instead, but this should be easier than that, and
is a reasonable default.

Whoops, never mind the lines "I would like to confirm this behavior.  I am
seeing also on 1.8a4.  Second," in the previous description.  Cut/paste error.
