[MlMt] masked iCloud email address

Hello Alain,

I would suggest two ways to try:
1. Try to set up a new SMTP Server (only) for outgoing email. MailMate should allow you to do this. Whether it will recognize a send-only account is not something I have tried at this time. While I have a masked sending account, I have not used it either with Mail nor with MailMate.
2. Set an entire IMAP + SMTP account with the combination you wish to use for both. Downside is that this would result in duplicating your incoming mail. So you then would have disable incoming email from this second account. So, don’t know which is easier to accomplish.

As a result perhaps your best choice is the first.  Some experimentation might be needed.

Respectfully,

Henry Seiden
