Hi Peter, Two accounts work fine on mine. I am also using Evolution 2.24.3 on Ubuntu 8.10 with any updates. I have two accounts, one on Exchange Labs and one on gmail. I only set it up this morning, and had problems with Exchange, so I gave up and just got it to work with POP3 and smpt. Gmail was working fine for send and receive, but Exchange wasn't sending until I got the configuration right. After reading your message, I sent two emails between the accounts, and after reading the headers I am pretty sure that the sender account's smtp server is used, and not just the default one. I also believe this would be refused by a decently setup smtp server. Perhaps there is a problem with your settings, does the [check for supported (authentication) types] work when you set up smtp for the secondary account? Have you checked the headers? Are you working from within a firewall (they can be nasty too)?
