Due to my rapidly growing cache of mail I've moved away from using IMAP on my ISP's 
server and am now storing all mail locally. Everything is working nicely, except for 
the management of the many email addresses I receive mail at. 
I would like to compose messages by default from [EMAIL PROTECTED] not 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] because I don't want mail actually sent directly to my 
local machine -- I want to receive mail only via fetchmail. I can accomplish this 
with: 
my_hdr From: Jeremy Redburn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 
my_hdr Reply-to: Jeremy Redburn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 

The only problem is that the my_hdr commands seem to override the set reverse_name 
directive which I need since I would like to reply to mails depending on which account 
they were delivered to. 

The reverse_name works beautifully if I use set realname and set from instead of the 
my_hdr commands but these don't seem to work correctly as normal mail I send out comes 
from 
jredburn@mylocaldomain instead of jredburn@myispdomain. 

Sorry for the longwinded 'story' -- any help is appreciated.
