I know how to set a role like this and I'm using it, but it's so very
annoying that I have to manually change the From field all the time when
pine could just copy it for me ... With personal domains and catch-all
features so popular these days, I think pine should add this feature.

On a related note, will pine ever support some sort of pattern matching
for the headers in a role? I'm not asking for full regex support (though
that would be nice) but even something simple like "foo*bar", filename
expansion style for example where ? and * match a char or multiple ones.

Thanks for your reply.
