One thing I would really like to see is the option to set a default email address to you when replying to a particular contact. So say I have two email addresses, a corporate email address and a personal email address. I would be able to set it so that when I am sending an email to my boss, it will automatically use my corporate email account to send the email. Similarly, if I am sending an email to my sister it will automatically use my personal email address. This would be set in the address book for each contact. You would be able to override this by selecting a different email address in the email window, it would just set the default email address based on the contact instead of the global settings.

Nice idea. Maybe make it possible to create groups, for instance, in this example one named Family and one named Corporate. Then specify the sending account on a per-group bases and add contacts to each groups accordingly. This will make it easier when changing the sending-account for all the contacts in a group. Although I can't think of something else now, there might be other customisations you could apply to a group.

Really useful, also for mailing-lists. I already missed this feature.

Last week I also searched for this feature but nothing found.

Would be really nice if it's possible to set a default sending identity for every address book entry.

For mailinglist I usually have the respective identity set for the mailinglist's folder.

Not only that, but I have family mail in a folder, so I set an identity for the family mail too. This is far better than having to set it up for each person.
