I am surprised to hear you say this.  In my experience this 
functionality, which I believe is unique to MailMate, works 
exceptionally well for me.  I have avoided having to change my sending 
identity hundreds, maybe thousands of times, because of this.  It has 
also saved me from sending from the wrong address many, many times.  I 
wonder in what way it is producing the wrong results?

Perhaps you have unusual addressing patterns, which is why I ask.  Maybe 
you're doing something I should be doing.

I am not familiar, I think, with the "address pattern" feature, so 
cannot comment.

David.
