Yeah? Now reply to someone with the appropriate From/Reply-To addresses from that mashed up gmail account. Thunderbird does this seamlessly, figuring it out from who the email was To if possible. That's why I still use it.

The Gmail web app can do the exact same thing: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/22377?hl=en


Fair enough. I wonder when they added this, it definitely didn't used to be able to do that.


It's 5+ years old. I've been using it since at least the late 2000s.


You can add POP/IMAP and SMTP accounts and read, write and send emails directly in Gmail with the proper headers (i.e. no the "delivered by gmail.com" message on your emails.)

I can't use my domain with Google Apps now, so I use my domain registrar's mailboxes and SMTP servers from my Gmail account for the same effect.
