Well, that's what I expected, but the gmail SMTP server doesn't like
it. Evolution sent all the right headers to make it work - like the
'from' field was the same as the SMTP account from field. I guess
before I go away again, I'll have to change all my lists to my gmx
account. Bother!!
I don't understand what problem you're trying to solve. I've just
sent this e-mail with my gmx address but using the gmail SMTP server
authenticated with a completely different address.
Is that not what you're trying to do?

There is an 'smtp switch' add-on for Thunderbird which lets you choose
which SMTP server to use to send an e-mail. As long as you set all the
accounts to use the default SMTP server it works fine.
Is that what you were looking for?
