From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020530 BuildID: 2002053012 I have several accounts setup in Mail. I was writing an email to someone and I had selected a different account (Affects the From address and BCC's to somewhere). I saved the mail as a draft and opened it later to continue. The mail had changed to use the 'default' (ie first) account for the From. However the BCC was still there. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make sure you have 2 accounts in Mail 2. Create an email and select the second account as the From 3. Save the email and close it 4. Open it again Actual Results: From changes to the first account. Expected Results: From should have stayed as it was put. The From looks ok when you preview the email in the drafts folder so it's the opening process that causes the problem. Also, I have setup mail so that drafts and sent messages from all accounts get stored in the drafts/sent folder of the first account (so they're all together). Possibly Mail is reassigning the from to the first account because that's where the mail is stored?
Confirming. Both my accounts are being set to save in Local Folders, which is in neither IMAP share. When I open to edit as new, it uses my first account as the from field. (Mozilla 2002053012; testing on trunk build once I load it) WinXP+SP1
Confirming on build 2002071008 on windows XP+SP1
