User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080207 Ubuntu/7.10 (gutsy) Firefox/2.0.0.12 Build Identifier: version 2.0.0.9 (20071031) In message compose Window There is From: select box Where I could choose specified SMTP servers. I have two. The second is GMail. However I can't choose anything there is only one option (first written) But the message uses SMTP server that marked as Default (in account settings) I'm running latest product on Kubuntu 7.10 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to the Accounts Settings 2. Enter another SMTP server (I've entered GMail's) 3. Try to compose the message OR Reply to OR Forward a message Actual Results: you'll see that there is only one and first SMTP server in From: field (the first field) Expected Results: To be able to choose any SMTP server I want but not only first. Even if first SMTP server is specified on the From: field It will use the default one which is, again, not listed.
You are not supposed to choose smtp server by the From field at composition time. You can set up several identities, and set different smtp servers for those. Then you can choose the suitable identity when composing a new message. (There is also some bug open about auto-detecting which smtp to use.) ->INVALID
