Hi Xavier

How would that be easier as you would have to define rules for every e-mail 
address that you might send mail to from that folder, if you set the From:
field depending upon folder, you have the logical model my current folder is x
therefore my current From: address is y.  We are just introducing the concept 
of a default E-Mail address and PGP signature per folder. From a user point of 
view it's simpler to understand and should be easier to set up.
