Re: A Really Good Email Cluent

"(*)When replying I wanted to pull my address out of the original header and use it as the 'reply to' address in the new email. That's because all my contacts get their own address."

That's a handy feature I miss from when I handled my email on RISC OS. The Pluto email client allows you to specify a 'wildcard user' - such as *@example.com. Then, when any email comes in to any address @example.com, if you hit reply, the address from the headers is automatically picked up and used.

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that very same feature in K9 Mail when I installed it on my phone t'other week. It's a great feature for precisely the reason you state. (I don't do it entirely on a 'per contact' basis, but I do in some cases.)
