You can also do it manually (if you have an extensive list of emails) by
clicking on "view -> Reply-To Field" and putting a check in that option.




I have something like this in my mind.  The thing is that I would like
not to expose my original email address.  For this, I need to mask both
the From and reply-to address.   So, what you said only solves half the
problem. :-)

Now set the reply to field to whatever you'd like.

I'm not sure how to do this automagically, maybe a script or something
to pop a new compose window from the command line with that info filled
in would be nice.  But it's still typing.  :)

Obviously doing this in settings is not an option. (It is a pain to do it.
But for research, it is worth the pain.)


Tools->Accounts->New

Create an account with the email address you want, set the SMTP but
leave the incoming server info blank.  When you are composing an email,
use the From: drop-down to select the email address you want this
particular email to be from.
