However, you can use filters to still filter all mails into the appropriate folders, even across accounts. If the two ID's use the same email address, you don't need to create a seperate account in TB. In order reply with different ID's (is this what you wish to do?), you can set up Reply templates that use the %From and %Reply-To macros.

Of course, office and work, but also German mailing lists, English mailing lists, etc. I wish to keep them seperately. None of the other mailers I used was able to do that.

So, instead of creating a new account in TB, all you want to do is create a new folder. And then you want to use folder templates with the macros I mentioned above. Whenever you reply out of the specific folder, your From address will be set. (You don't need to set the Reply-To in your case).

Much easier than either of those (see above). ;-) -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste.
