If your old address is with a public email provider, you could
probably also set up a POP3 collection, so that it gets the mail from
the new account (or wise versa). You would then have to only download
mail from one and get both. If you enter your templates to use the
appropriate address as sender, e.g. new mail always gets the new
address, replies get their original to-address, your contacts won't
even notice if you don't tell them.

Of course, this is not an option if you're switching addresses because
the old one is full of spam.

New email address, same account

2009-10-01 Thread usman x
Hello,
I've had the same email address for quite a few years but am thinking
of getting a new one. My question is: is it possible to have emails
from 2 different email addresses go into the same account?

The reason I am asking is that I conduct a lot of searches through the
text of emails in my account and having to do the same search on two
different accounts will be too tedious.

Thanks for your help,
usman

Not sure why this is an issue; you just need to tick the folders for 
both accounts when you enter the search terms before pressing Start. I 
sometimes search for something across all accounts and all folders.


There are other ways around this. Some suggestions:-

1. A filter to move all incoming mail from one of the accounts to the 
other. (The downside is that you may end up replying from the wrong 
account.)

2. Set up Virtual Folders that show you the mail from both accounts

Yep, I do the same.

Another one: Beat TB!'s superior ability to strictly keep seperate
accounts seperately and move all messages to a Common Folder.

I have experienced enough email clients that do that by default
(common Inbox), which is why I use TheBat!, but people's ways of
working are different.

Guten Tag Thomas Fernandez,

Or Create a Virtual Common Folder, which shows up the Summary of all

Wouldn't you just just change the email address being checked in the account 
properties? That doesn't necessarily have to impact anything else about the 
account, as far as I can remember. I believe I've been using the same account 
(actually, a composite of several accounts) spanned over several address 
changes. I just keep pointing them all back to the same folders from way back 
and things seem pretty solid.
