[horde] Feature Request - allow envelope-sender to equal envelop-to on reply.

Which is correct.

But the default **has** to be responding with the Horde identity.  Why  
would the default be to respond as the envelope-to user?  What if the  
envelope to user is a list address?  Or some other aliased mailing  
list address?  It makes no sense to respond to a list as the list  
itself.

Just because it requires work to configure tied identities doesn't  
mean it is wrong.
