Same general topic but different question/comment. I've seen messages that
essentially say there is no way to reset an unknown account password without
deleting and recreating the various account settings after deleting account.cfg.
But one would think that an "administrator" is all powerful and could reset
passwords on other accounts, or prevent them from being set or changed, no? If
TB has pretensions of being a multi-user mail system, it should give some
thought to such requirements.

(Sorry for my frequent TB Help file gripe - my MAIN beef with TB - but the
network and admin help is worthless. I don't want a "networking course"; I want
context sensitive information on how groups works, for example. It certainly
isn't intuitive. I would hope that the TB creators at least monitor some of
these very common problems and sources of confusion and address them with Help
rewrite. End of soapbox.)
