In other email interfaces (Thunderbird, Gmail) I can send messages from my account (user@email.com) but override the From: field with another name and address, for example another address I control on the same domain.



How can I do this in Evolution?

          You can add aliases to your email account as follows:



          • From the application menu select Edit > Accounts

          • In the Evolution Accounts window, expand the account you want to modify to reveal the "Mail Accounts" node, and expand that to reveal the imapx+smtp node

          • Edit that node

          • Open the "Identity" tab (should be the first tab opened)

          • Locate the "Aliases" box at the bottom of the right-hand pane

          • Click "Add" to add a new alias

          You can enter just an email address to use the same "Full Name":



          user2@email.com


          Or you can enter a new name and email address:



          "User Two" <user2@email.com>


          Either way, once you click OK and compose a new email, the new alias will appear in the dropdown list for the "From" field.
