You must have done that for a reason. Once you start sending all incoming mails into one Inbox, once you reply to any of them, TB! will use the email address belonging to the account were that global inbox is in. Changes are then you will reply with a different email address then the one originally used or you must have a fancy template that checks the email for the recipients email address and then uses that as a from address.

Re: Sharing Filters
Hello David, Is there any way to share filters between accounts? No. There are several filters which I want in all accounts but do I really have to create these in each account? No, create them in one. Then copy (Ctrl+C) the filter, open the Sorting Office for the other account(s) and paste (Ctrl+V) it. You may have to adjust the Source and Destination folder names if they are not exactly the same. Not a perfect solution but certainly much better than having to re-create each one from scratch. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

If you think the filtering system is not very easy, it is a good time forofficial suggestion, because the developers are completely revamping the filtering system for v2. There are no news about what will be changed though, but I hope a few of my suggestions will find their way into it. ;-) -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste.
