Hi All,

I'd like email from my .mac address to have a different return address (with my personal domain name).

I've set all mail coming in to my personal domain name to automatically forward to my .mac address (because I'm using push from .mac to my iPhone), but I'd like any mail sent out via my .mac address to have a different return address (whether I send it from my iPhone, or my desktop running Mail). That way I keep my domain identity even though everything is going through .mac.

I've fiddled about in the settings of both Mail and the online .mac Mail analog, but no success. Can anyone help me out?

Chas

Have you tried using a comma separated list of e-mail addresses in the Email address field of Mail's Account Information preferences?

ie. [email protected], [email protected]

Not sure if that carries over to me.com though.

It doesn't look like it's possible to do that through MobileMe's web interface.

That was one reason I ditched MobileMe for Google Apps.
