Hi Jean Michel,

I haven't seen much response to your proposal but I think it is a good
one. Does anyone else agree? Do we have any takers for it ??

As regards the dual approach for IMAP (PowerMail + AppleMail) - I have
been doing this for a while (even though I don't have multiple IMAP
accounts, as some do). It does work quite well.

Regards.....Peter
