No, not separate folders, Kirk. Mickey means (with a great suggestion that I often forget because I use it all the time) is that, if you edit the Account and check the box for "Allow online access", then the account will show as an icon in the left-side folder list (which is more than just folders, obviously, but I don't know what it is really called.) He doesn't mean a separate folder for holding mail for accounts, but the actual account icon (the kind of yellow blob thing that is supposed to be -- I think -- a document and an envelope with net-tails). Like you, Kirk, I have more than a dozen accounts, some of which are "real" accounts and some of which are what I call "dummy" accounts. They don't have POP info in the account setup. Because I run my own servers, I can receive mail at anything @mydomains, so I use different accounts to track different correspondence and such. SMTP-only is probably a more appropriate term than 'dummy'. I use the account icon "trick" that Mickey mentions by just highlighting one of those, then clicking New. The account is auto-filled with that account. No popup pulling is needed at all. Entourage is so good, that sometimes I forget that the things I do all the time are "just there". Then it turns out I actually *told* Entourage to do that. Go figure. Thanks for the reminder, Mickey. (I don't like pulling from the popup, or scrolling a long list of accounts generated by script, because my mouse-o-meter says I've driven for far too many mouse-miles. Scary, frankly. Too bad there aren't frequent mouse miles for some use or other.) -- Gary Incoming replies are auto-deleted. Please post directly to the list or newsgroup. Really need direct?
