Matthew,
The terms you are using are not consistent with what I am familiar with, so
I really don't know how to answer. If you look at this message, you will see
that my 'name' is 'Daniel Donnelly' and the email address is different, and
that is caused by my email clients settings, not the IMail server settings.
In IMail all you are really creating is the email address.
Daniel Donnelly
