Sure.  In the 'sending' tab of the Accounts preferences dialog in Kmail
preferences is a "Default Domain" setting.  My understanding is the default
domain is the domain name appended to e-mail addresses that just have a
username field (the rollover text claims this as well).  Thus, if I compose an
e-mail to 'foo', it actually gets sent to 'foo@<default domain>'.  So if my
default domain is set to 'example.net' then an e-mail composed to 'foo' is
actually e-mailed to 'foo at example.net'.  What I would like is to have the
'default domain' be a per-identity or per-transport setting rather than a
global setting.  In my case I use a single kmail instance to talk to two
different IMAP servers.  One is for my personal e-mail (I will use
'example.org' for this one), and the second is for my work e-mail (I will use
'example.com' for this one).

What I would like to do at a high level, is that if I send an e-mail to 'joe',
I want it to go to 'joe at example.com' if I am sending a work e-mail and to
'joe at example.org' if I am sending a personal e-mail.  Since I use separate
identities and transports for work e-mail vs personal e-mail, making the
'default domain' setting tied to either one of those rather than a global
setting would accomplish that.
