Well, I have 5 accounts configured right now, all POP3. They are from various hosts.
The default account is [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] goes to picassofish.com. This is a Linux box on the net, has a sendmail server running on it. I connect via POP3 from evolution and download my mail. [EMAIL PROTECTED] goes to mail.kwic.com. KWIC is my ISP. They have a bunch of FreeBSD boxen and one of them is running sendmail. I, again, connect via POP3 to their mail server and download my mail. I then have a whole bunch of Evolution filters (SPAM stuff, folder routing, etc) but I don't think they play into this at all. No procmail, no other stuff in between. Now, replying to "normal" messages seems to work well - the correct account is probed from (presumably) X-Evolution-Source: but replying to mailing lists (any list, I'm on several) selects the default account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) not the one specified in the X-Evo-source header. So, to summarize, they both travel to me via sendmail and POP3. They "merge", as far as I know, only in the sense that they are both stored on the same hard disk. Hmm... Interesting. I clicked reply to the message you sent to the list. It selected the right account. I'm guessing this is because I appear as a recipient?
