reverse_name and tagged reply : bug ?
Hi,
I am a big user of alternates and reverse_name, in order to have the
correct "From: " address when I reply to a mail. I recently discovered
that if I tag two mails to make a common reply, then I get my default
"From: " address instead of the one that was used as recipient in the
two tagged messages.
Here is a minimal .muttrc and simple instructions to reproduce the
problem:
---- .muttrc ----
set reverse_name
set reverse_realname
set from="default@xxxxxxxxxxx"
set use_from
set envelope_from
set edit_headers
alternates '^(default|tom)@example\.org$'
-----------------
In /tmp/test, fake two mails with 'tom@xxxxxxxxxxx' as recipient.
Reply to one of them : the from is tom@xxxxxxxxxxx (correct).
Tag them all and hit ';r' or ';g' : the from is default@xxxxxxxxxxx
instead of tom@xxxxxxxxxxxx
Even more, tag only one of them and ';r' : the from is
default@xxxxxxxxxxx instead of tom@xxxxxxxxxxxx
I tried this on Debian/testing, Debian/sid and also a fresh build from
the hg repository.
I can test patches if it helps.
