That's how I've set it and, also, tried to set it again.  I even changed 
the identity for one folder, then changed it back, just in case the 
setting wasn't being saved unless it was changed.

Okay, I didn't have the transport set for the desired identity, but it 
was still sending e-mail if I had selected that identity manually on an 
e-mail.  Still, when I try to reply to an e-mail in that folder, it 
selects the Default identity instead.

Is there something I can change in a config file manually that should 
take care of this?
