Re: [Evolution] Mail recipient editing weirdness



OK, this behaviour seems to only occur if you have focus-follows-mouse
enabled in Sawfish. If you run click-to-focus, everything works
normally.

What seems to happen is that every time you press delete, a new focus
event is generated, enabling the pop-down with the best guess about the
recipient, which gets filled in.

Has anybody this problem:

I'm replying to a mail, but I want to change the recipient (who's in my
addressbook). I try to delete the name, but as I delete, the dialogue
keeps filling in the original recipient again. The only way to do this
is to mark the recipient using the mouse, then deleting it all at once.
Strange and annoying.

Is there any reason to reply a message to another person than the sender
?
This has to be a forward and not a reply.

Yes there is. We have an impromptu mailing list in my gaming group, and
so far, the guy who set it up has failed to properly set the reply-to,
so just replying will set the address of the sender, rather than the
address of the list. Thus I need to change the 'to' address, and it's
cumbersome, clumsy and prone to errors at this time.
