I think it's a reasonable idea to default this feature to "off". If the pref is hidden, maybe a double-click on the From should ask if user wants to enable the pref? This would be a context-sensitive way to expose this feature, which defaults to "off".
Another use-case for this feature is adding a "+suffix" to the username so replies can be processed accordingly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/357864 Title: Editing the "From" field for the current email only (as text, not dropdown) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunderbird/+bug/357864/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
