I know this was reported years ago and never really implemented, but I'd like to *bump* it and say that I'd like this feature as well. I have about 10 email addresses in a single account and every time I reply, I have to manually select the correct From address. It would be nice if claws-mail was wise enough to detect the To: or Envelope-to: or something similar and choose the correct account when replying. Add SMTP-only accounts for those other addresses. Or, filter them into their own folders, and set the From address in the Folder Template. Unfortunately, adding SMTP-only accounts or filtering based on folders is not an option when we have too many email addresses. Please consider those people who have 10+ email addresses for their business and thus multiple inbox folders cause more work and they solve. It would be nice if claws was clever to compare the incoming To: address with the available From: addresses in the system and to choose cleverly when replying. Much better than to create lots of SMTP-only accounts or folders per email address. Thank you.

SMTP-only accounts are "addresses in the system" (In reply to comment #4) > folders per email address. You wouldn't need to do this, you just need to add %t as the From value in the Folder Template.
