I learned (trained myself) to first enter TO and then adjust FROM if
needed. I actually like the fact that MM adjust the FROM based on the
TO. In my case, it gets it right most of the time and I have a dozen
FROM addresses, each for a different purpose. It seems that last used
FROM for a given TO is usually given a preference.

Benny,
MailMate has this troubling habit of sometimes auto-switching the
From: address (if you have multiple e-mail accounts) to another
account, depending on what the recipient address is. This can be
simply annoying or downright embarrassing, depending on the recipient
and the name on the sending account.
Just today I brought up a new message window, and my work e-mail
account was in the From: box drop-down.
I entered a work account in the To: field, and once I did that, it
switched the From: address to my throwaway Gmail account! If I'm
sending from my work account to another work account, why on Earth
would it switch the sending account? If I am viewing my work account
and click on "New", I expect it to use my work account as the "From:"
address and then not change it after that.
Is there some setting (or "defaults write" variable) to permanently
disable this switching "feature"? Under "Preferences" -> "Composer"
-> "New Message: Default account is" I have it set to "derived from
context". I'm not sure I want that, but the other static choices
aren't really better, either.
Thanks,
- Greg
