Hi I have set up a default alias identity (call this E2) in my Thunderbird email account. But when I send a message using E2 in the 'from' box, when the recipient comes to reply and selects 'Reply All', my other identity (the actual main name of my mailbox, call it E1) is shown in the CC/BC box. I do not want my other main identity (E1) email showing at all when they reply, just E2. Can anyone advise? Thank you very much.

Hi Coco77,

I have seen in the past that it may help to also fill out the reply-to field of your identity with the new e-mail address. Could you please try that?
