Another way would be to use one of those freeware POP servers. Install it.
Create a local POP account, configure it to download mail from all those
remote POP accounts. Finally set up TB! to download mail from the local
POP account ... POP server - localhost, password - the one you configured.
Two freeware apps that come to mind include Mercury/32 and the other is
Hamster. Mercury is better since it has better documentation. It has a
relatively small memory footprint. See:
http://www.pmail.com/overviews/ovw_mercwin.htm
If you use multiple POP accounts then you may also have problems with
sending messages using a single ISP SMTP server. Mercury will help you
here as well since it comes packaged with a fully functional SMTP server
module.
There are two disadvantages with filtering from one account to another.
One is that you'd have to still create accounts for each remote POP
account. The other is that the only way to filter to another account and
use the main accounts filters is to redirect the messages to the main
account. This will lead to message header adjustments. To prevent this
you'd have to create filters for each account and do the filtering from
each account directly to the main accounts folders.
Using a local POP server will prevent your having to create multiple
accounts in TB!. You'll have no problems with filtering and the messages
will be unaltered.
Be that as it may, the enigmatic version 2 of TB! is slated to have
multiple POP server support per account.....
