Subject: Problem: IMAP Login/ From Address

Hi,

  I recently saw the answer to one of my questions about the login
name for the INBOX on an IMAP connection, but I still have a problem
with it.

My login name on the UNIX server I'm running is "shelton", while my login 
name for my IMAP account is: "bsshelton".

When I send mail, the from address always reads "[email-masked]"
Instead of "[email-masked]".

Is there any way to override the default lookup for the local username?

Using IMAP doesn't bring you to your remote account. It only gives you
access to that account. Therefore, whenever you reply to a mail, your
current e-mail is given as the sender.
