in the composer window click menu "View" and tick "mail transport" or 
"identity" depending. I tend to use Identity as that is where you can 
set an email address, reply-to etc.

once that is ticked the field shows up every time you compose a new mail.

as for the mail transport problem I do not experience that. Again in 
Identities you can set a "special transport" for the identity.
