Details

At my company, I can approve expense reports via email. I get an email with the details from the finance workflow system, and can select "Approve" or "Reject". These links are mailto: URLs with different attributes. When I select "Approve", it opens a new Mail Compose window with some confirmation codes in the body of the message. The problem is that the "From" address comes up as the 1st mail account in my TB profile (a rarely used personal email account), rather than the one the email was sent to (my work email account). As a result, the finance mail engine bounces the email as not being legit to my personal email account, and the expense report remains in limbo. Expected behavior: the From setting should be the same as the account where I'm reading email.
