Douglas, just for clarification, what are you arguing for? Support
for multiple personalities per account so that each account may handle
multiple e-mail addresses, or support for virtual folders where you may
transparently process mail from multiple accounts and folders via a single
folder?

The editor is not WYSIWYG and you therefore don't know what the
recipient will see in your messages. Fundamental baddy for me that made me
cast it aside. It also deals with multiple accounts via multiple windows.
This was no different from running multiple instances of Agent which I was
doing at the time. I don't particularly like multiple personalities
either, though I'm not really against the feature, as long as the support
for dealing with separate accounts via one window as it is now, is
maintained. I don't see why it can't be.
