I do this quite often (set up both IMAP and POP3 accounts for the same email address) and just put IMAP or POP after the account name e.g., [email protected] and [email protected] to identify which is which. The names are set up in: Edit|Mail & Newsgroups Accounts Settings (or right click on the account name and select 'Settings') - click on the bolded account name and edit 'Account Name:' change for [email protected] for the IMAP account and [email protected] for the POP3 account. (note: don't do the same for anything else in the account properties - only do this in the 'Account Name' box). Click 'OK' at the bottom of the page & you should now be able to easily identify which is in the Name column. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
