        Hi,
that's correct, the send account override based on the recipient needs
the recipient to be known. As the user can change the From address
while editing the message the send account override applies before the
editing starts.

You can setup send account overrides also for the folders, which
applies to the new messages as well (when created in that folder).

Try Edit->Plugins->Sender Validation plugin. It can help here.

If you want to test it only, then you can switch Evolution to offline
(File->Work offline), in which case the sent messages are piled into
the On This Computer/Outbox, from where you can delete them before
going back online.
        Bye,
