Yes of course, but we like to give the user the ability to choose from  
a bunch of addresses which where defined as aliases to this account  
anyway.

So we have e.g.

userA : [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]

and the user could choose to set on of these addresses as *sender* for  
his/here identities and no other e-mail address can be used. This  
makes sense because this e-mail addresses will be routed to the  
account anyway so the user "owns" the address.
