Your assumption is that I've created all the accounts I'll ever want. In fact, I've avoided using good reply addresses because it's so painful to make a dummy account just to hold one piece of information, the alternate alias I want replies to come back to. > Also - have you given any thought to how this would be presented to the > user in the composer? I doubt it. Your telepathy isn't working very well. I've been giving a great deal of thought to how it should work. How about this: I should be able to copy an existing account and then edit the copy. And in case you're having trouble figuring out how that's supposed to work, you put a Copy button after the Edit button in the account list page, open an account edit dialog with the information from the copied account and the name blank. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
