User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0 Build ID: 20120619191901 Steps to reproduce: Replied to a mail that I received. Actual results: Mail was sent (everything OK), but I discovered that the From value for the composed and sent mail is wrong in the list - is receiver of the mail. Expected results: My name should have been in the list.

Mails are located in a sub-folder to Inbox. I tried to shift view to Inbox and back - wrong value was still shown. After restart of Thunderbird the right value was shown...

Does repairing the folder fixes the issue ?
Peter Sone Koldjaer, thanks for filing this bug, especially annotated screenshot of attachment 636183 [details] showing the issue. Peter, are you able to reproduce this bug, e.g. by replying to the same message again? (In reply to Ludovic Hirlimann [:Usul] from comment #6) > Does repairing the folder fixes the issue ? Well, reporter says in comment 3 that after restart of TB, values in from-column were correct, so reparing folder isn't needed...

See some similar bugs: > http://tinyurl.com/7rt55rq I think Hashem is trying to say that *Errors seen in error console* are related to HTML code (hence unrelated to this bug), which is true. *This bug 767829* is not related to HTML code. (Hashem, "this error" is gramatically ambiguous in your comment 5, as the reference of "this" is unclear)
Attachment #636184 - Attachment is obsolete: true
I tried to reproduce with the following steps: 1: Send mail fra my wifes account to me. 2: I reply to this mail - From column shows her name! 3: I try to reply to her mail again - then both my replies have correct From name (seen on attachment).
WADA, as seen in screenshots of attachment 636183 [details] and attachment 641111 [details], this isn't about wrong sender when composing, only a temporary display problem of "From" column in message list.

(In reply to Ludovic Hirlimann [:Usul] from comment #6) > Does repairing the folder fixes the issue ? Peter, can you try this and see if you can still reproduce afterwards? Right-click on affected folder in folder list > Properties > Repair folder More questions: 1) Which method/settings are you using to file your reply in the same folder as the original message? 2) what type of folder is it (Inbox, Inbox subfolder etc.)? 3) using POP or IMAP?
Peter, can you reproduce in Safe Mode (with all addons disabled)? https://support.mozillamessaging.com/kb/safe-mode

I'm unable to reproduce this for *POP* subfolder of Inbox, but it's reported against IMAP.

Attached image New observation
Today I had to send 2 invitations - so after I sent the first one, I changed folder to Sent Items to be ready to click Forward on the first mail. Then I saw this new thing: The Recipient on the first mail, is the same as an email I sent yesterday...
Odd problem you've got. Peter, Do you still see it when using much newer version 38 or current beta http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/channel/ ? (which is almost at the next major release, version 45)
