when i enter the 2 aliases with a comma it doesnt accept it-
and i cant receive any mails at all because it always says the password for “name.name@gmx.at, alias@gmx.at” is wrong.
so it seems to think it is one email adress instead of two.

:-((((

is it just me or has leopard mail.app lost the intelligence mentioned in this post to auto-select the correct alias to set the reply from? i could swear this used to work properly in tiger, but having upgraded to leopard, it is definitely not working for me now. no matter what alias a message is addressed to, when i click reply, the from address is set to my default, main address. this is a really bad flaw.

I also need to change the from name for each email address, is this possible?

[...] Mail.app doesn’t allow you to specify a particular sig for each email address alias associated with the one account. (Find out how to run multiple email addresses from one account in Mail). [...]

I am positive that this is supposed to work! It works flawlessly for me. You can take it from the horse's mouth.

Thanks for the great tip. However, I have tried to reply to a message that was sent to a certain alias, but the “From” address of that message was not automatically changed to the address from the original message.

Are you sure that this is supposed to work?
