Walt, forget about Identities; they don't enter into the scheme I'm suggesting. within one and the same Identity (the default), set up two accounts. Give them identical server setting and username and password settings. But give the accounts different names, and enter different names into the Name fields. then, mother and son could each use her/his own account in the send/receive menu, and in the From drop-down of a message header. They could even set up message rules to sort the received mail into separate folders according to the account from which it came. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Walt Smith" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, August 28, 2006 5:57 PM Subject: Re: [jaws-users] Changing name of email sender.
