When composing an email one can click on the from line to have a popup window with a list of sender email. I suppose there is one for each defined account.

I would like to know if/how it is possible to have several sending addresses for a single account ? because I need to use different sender email depending on who Im sending (for mailing lists, work, spammers, etc). Or maybe can I have the from line editable in full text maybe ?

troll:
BTW, this seams unproper, according to mails rfcs, to bind the sender's address with the servers used.

This would be great.

I have my google account pick up (& delete) mail from a secondary POP3 account. When using the gmail web interface, I can send mail 'from' this second address. When using Modest, I can only send 'from' my gmail account.

I hate email clients that don't let you edit the 'from' field, but Modest is far from being the only one.

might work. I use mfe and have set the email app to not to fetch messages from pop account at all. so pop settings etc are correct but not used at all.

If I put an nonexistent pop server, then I will get some strange error messages. If I put no pop server I can't create the account. If I put my true pop3 server I will fetch and store twice as much emails, which is unacceptable.
