The way ad-hoc sending identities works has changed today for me on the web interface, and not for the better...
Previously if you selected a wildcard sending identity when composing a message, you could edit the 'from' address in the e-mail to be anything you chose.
Now, suddenly, you are only permitted to edit the part before the '@'.
If you want to specify anything after the '@', you now have to set up a separate sending identity for each and every variation.
This is incredibly inconvenient for me, as I use a different subdomain of my personal domain for each contact or purpose.
I maintain a list of addresses I have used or given out, which currently includes well over 600 different subdomains.
It is insanely impractical for me to set up a separate 'sending identity' for every single one of those addresses!
I have raised a support ticket about this and I'll let you know what they say.
