No default address or variable default address
Currently, we are required to have a default email address. I have multiple email addresses in my account and use them for different purposes. But, when I open an email it automatically puts the default email address. If that is not the address I want to use, I have to change it. The problem is that it is easy to forget to change it and then I end up sending the email from the wrong address. I propose 2 solutions.
- Allow the user to have no default email. This would require the user to always pick an address when composing an email and avoid accidentally using the default address.
- I have my email segregated into different folders. So, all the emails coming or going from a particular address are in a single folder. When I am in that folder and I hit reply, it goes from the email address already used in that email. But, when I click on compose a new email, my brain expects it to know that I am in a particular alias email, but it just uses the default. Allow a way to set different default addresses for different folders.
Thanks

I joined just to make this suggestion.
If your default email is automatically selecting when composing, it is easy to accidentally send from the wrong email. If instead, no email is selected, you cannot forget to select your sending adding.
I would like an option for "no default" such that my send address is always empty and my message will never be sent unless I choose my address.
