Bug Description
Binary package hint: evolution
Basically, I have one account that I check mail from, and several set up to send mail from, as I have a few different email addresses that all get forwarded to that one IMAP account but that I use for different things (my work address, my school address, etc.) with different signatures, and such.
On all accounts I tell it to save Sent and Drafts to the corresponding folders on my IMAP server (the "receive" account). They are subdirectories of that account's INBOX folder, because my provider doesn't allow anything else.
If I send with the "receive" account selected as my identity, the sent message gets saved as it should.
When I send from either of the "send only" accounts, the mail does not get saved, even though I have the appropriate folder selected. It doesn't get saved in the local "Sent" folder either, so it's completely lost it seems, which is definitely not good.
The correct behaviour would be for it to save to an IMAP/other remote folder you specify, regardless of which account it belongs to.

It seems this problem was fixed in a recent package upgrade.
