[MlMt] how to change the standard "from address"

Hi,
Thanks, didn't see that. I tried but failed as I seem to be not able to 
get the right syntax. Maybe it's because my user account (google apps 
for work) has an "@" in it?
I tried "defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmDefaultAccount -string 
'imap://username@imap.example.com'" with the mailadress itself or even 
the serverURL from the Identities.plist using "@" or "%40" (which seemed 
to have the right syntax. But I always end up with a error message that 
the default from address is unknown.)

Thanks for you help!

Sebastian
