Yep. That's how mine look, too.

Each of mine has its own setting, too. None are set to "default."

No. I originally registered with a Comcast account, but registered again 
with this account, and unregistered the Comcast account. I still have 
the Comcast account, and I have it set to automatically forward to this 
account, but that is not the account that comes up when I hit reply to a 
PLUG e-mail. The account that does come up is a different Comcast 
account. It's the second account in the Thunderbird list.

I don't know if it matters, but there is no separate section in the 
t-bird list for the primary account. It uses the "Local Folders" 
section. I assumed this was normal for t-bird.
