[slightly OT] rant

Sorry for the slightly ot rant, here (it's really about posting difficulties)
, but I know apple folks frequent this list and I don't do this sort of thing very often. Mail.app drives me insane because it won't allow me to have a different reply to address from that of my pop server. I am on a cable modem and, since my cable provider doesn't provide dialup, I have a separate dial-up ISP. I can't post to this list from my dial-up ISP due to the return address required by that ISP for SMTP server authentication. Since I also have my own domain name, which is forwarded to my cable pop service, I can't reply to people who send me mail to my own domain without manually changing the account address in the message. This crazy setup requires people who correspond with me by email to see three different email addresses depending on whether I'm on the road or not --- ALL BECAUSE MAIL.APP IS SO INFLEXIBLE IT WON'T ALLOW ME TO SET A SEPARATE REPLY-TO ADDRESS!!! Next's mail.app didn't suffer from this crippling, so it must have been deliberate.
