A "profile" can consist of many accounts. An "account" is a single identity, the two are synonymous. I don't quite understand what you're after here. Doesn't make sense that the account "Joe" ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) would also be "Betty" ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) configured in the same account. Example: You have ONE account named "Joe" which sends/replies as [EMAIL PROTECTED] You have a second account named "Betty" which sends/replies as [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you have email received in the account "Joe.isp.com" and you want to reply as "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" then that's quite simple to do by clicking the drop down "From" list and choosing any account name/address. Both of the above "accounts" are in one single "profile" .... -- Jay Garcia - Netscape Champion Novell MCNE-5/CNI-Networking Technologies-OSI UFAQ - http://www.UFAQ.org
