User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20060601 Firefox/2.0.0.3 (Ubuntu-edgy) Build Identifier: 20070306 A common use case for me and others is to find an email in the sent folder and click "reply" to follow up. i.e. "You never replied to this..." Many mail clients recognize this by setting the To / Cc fields to be equal to the original message (the one being replied to), instead of being addressed to yourself (the sender). Thunderbird should do this too. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
TB 2.0 does this. Have you tried it?
I was going to claim the same thing, with references to the various bug numbers, when I discovered that I can't persuade trunk to properly do it, at work on Windows or at home on Mac. Maybe I don't understand the way it's supposed to work with multiple accounts, though.
If you set up your fcc to a different account, then it's tricky to get it to work - you need to add the identity that you're sending the e-mail from to the account that's getting fcc'd to.
Yep, or set mailnews.reply_to_self_check_all_ident to true to make it check all your identities in all accounts. Tried trunk, still works fine for me so resolving as dupe to the original RFE for this.
