The "you" replaces the account's or the identity's email, but not across multiple accounts.

Is it possible to prevent the replacement?

Not sure what you mean with "not across multiple accounts" ?
 I use three accounts, all on the same domain, but using different names before the @ (dave@, postmaster@, webtrees@...). All show as "you" (only the colour triangles in the smart folder are different).

Can I add a bit more detail... It seems that the word "you" only replaces an exact match. If, like me, you also use a "catch all" mailbox, then on that account, whatever the sender wrote is in the header, unless it also matches the account name. My catch all account is "postmaster@mydomain.com". If an email is sent to "postmaster@..." then it is shown as "You". If an email is sent to "randomname@...", then it still goes in the postmaster account, but shows "randomname@..."

Now I can think of another valid reason to ask that "you" might be suppressed, even though I am happy with it most of the time. If you have a printer app, and wish to print out an email for some business purpose, it is unhelpful if it does not show who "you" is.
