Thanks for the suggestion, perhaps I'll give that a try.

My reluctance to use aliases is that sometimes when I'm on the road
and don't have access to TB, I need to rely on the web based mail
frontend provided by my email host.  However, the web mail they
provide does not allow me to change the FROM field of the email
header.  Therefore, if I need to send emails via the webmail, I
would reveal the true target email account which I would
like to hide.

Also, in my original description of the problem, I forgot to mention
another strange behavior.  I mentioned that the accounts that were
unsuccessfully checked would "get stuck" and hang the Conn Centre,
which I would then need to terminate by pressing the abort button.  I find
that, from this point on, TB would not perform any subsequent account
checking for these unsuccessful accounts, even on an individual basis.
For instance, for each of these accounts, I would press F2 and nothing
would occur (i.e. I don't see the Conn Center coming up with messages
saying that it's connecting and checking, etc).  However, for the
successful ones, subsequent checking would go on as normal.  The only
way to rectify this is to close TB and restart it again.

I've been browsing thru the archives and have seen a lot of "Hanging
on Retrieval" type of problems.  I wonder if this is a well-known bug
that Ritlabs is working on?
