Ooh, I like this. I've been using it for the last week, and here's some
comments on it:

1) The resulting UI on this is *very* similar to the UI that Eudora uses for
this same purpose. I think this is a plus.
2) When replying to mail that was posted to a mailing list, it puts the list
post address in my From field. I doubt if that's desired behavior. I notice on
some lists, it asks me first. I'm guessing that it's using the domain name, and
since a lot of my lists are in the same domain as my email address, it assumes
they're me. :) Mailing lists are somewhat easy to detect (look for a List-Id
header (Mailman) or a Sender: header containing an address with "-owner" in it
(Majordomo)).
3) When I get one of the above "should I use this?" questions and hit Cancel, I
have a blank From textbox instead of having the default address in it.
