Send mail from another Email?

[7on]

Would it be possible to write an app where you can type in another email address in a from field? For instance, an app that can read the emails on your iPhone so you can forward/reply to them as another email address? I have several emails forward at the server level into my mobile me and it's be great to send from these as well. I've seen web services that let you have the sent address be anything you want, I was just wondering if there was a way for this to be integrated into the iPhone as an app? Thanks!

gmail allows you to do this. I am not sure if mobileme will also allow this or not.

Shouldn't matter as we're not talking about webmail.

I doubt it, as Apple would probably reject such an app on the grounds of it being too similar to its own mail app.

Apple just needs to get off their butts and add that functionality into the iPhone Mail app like it should have in the first place. It's a glaring omission in features that should never have been missed.
