I say that because what you describe is well defined specific use cases
(internal vs external mailboxes).

As a James user, I don't have such needs, and I don't expect to rewritte
senders.

However, you should be able to modify the default configuration, adding
a bundled mailet into it in order to configure this feature.

That is what I mean by "not enabled by default".

Maybe 'rewrite sender' is not the right terminology.   Maybe 
"deriveSendersAccount" would better explain it.  My whole point is that 
if I prefer to use an 'alias' as my 'from' address instead of using the 
precise address that is my account name, the code is going to look for a 
'sent' folder in the 'alias' account (which doesn't exist).    My only 
concern is that the correct account is derived for the 'sent' folder 
whether or not an alias is used for the 'from/sender' address.  A few 
weeks ago before I figured out what was happening, I had a lot of email 
going into sent folders on 'orphaned' mailboxes named after aliases.
