Well, that's slightly different. I use that too, but it means you need to have all your mail coming into one account. Yes, you can send from different senders, but if you want to totally separate your email to your different addresses into different boxes, this won't work. Even labeling is not foolproof, since emails that are to lists or to bcc'd addresses (i.e. do not contain your address in the header) cannot be labeled accordingly. > i'm not against the idea, i was just wondering what the point was Cool. :) -Joe
