Editing the "From" data
With the Classic interface, it is possible to edit the "From" data (to change the sender's name and/or e-mail address) when sending a message.
Is this not possible with the Modern interface? |

Create a Personality (now called an Identity) with a * before the @
Eg *@yourdomain Give it a nickname like "editablefrom" or whatever you like. When composing or replying to an email, click this personality in the From drop-down menu. You will find that this gives you the ability to now edit the From address. |

Subdomain support using wildcard identity
This works very well for subdomain addressing.

Bill surly it would be set up as *test@domain.com the way you have explained it wont work for me but the above does.
*@alias.domain.com can not be set up in the alias section or am I missing something? |

If the alias is alias@domain.com, the corresponding subdomain address is of the form anything@alias.domain.com and the wildcard identity is *@alias.domain.com
