Dear all, I am a happy user of Alternative Addresses [1] in mutt, together with reverse_name and reverse_realname. I use this primarily when replying to a mail. This works if the mail is addressed (in headers to, and cc) to me. Then mutt recognizes and sets the from correctly to the matches address.

Would it be feasible to also let the alternates scan the mail headers and find the header 'To-Envelope'? For me, this seems to always contain the correct address to which the mail was delivered to me. Well, I do not know where this header comes from; could be that my exim sets these during delivery to maildir. Cheers, -- Bastian
