Collecting mail from various mailboxes is no problem at all. fetchmail
works quite ok for that, so why should I switch to IMAP (which sucks btw)?

IIRC - you can't ~send~ mail using different identities in kmail - just
check multiple pop accounts (which netscape can't do). I'm talking in
terms of what Pegasus / Eudora Pro / Outlook Express 5 etc can do.
The best solution is procmail I suppose, or different .pinerc / .muttrc
files. Maintaining so many is another hassle however.
I posted a sendmail patch (by Ron F. Guilmette <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) re how
to do this - it works on the X-orcpt header (original recipient) normally
used for DSN notifications (return receipts)
Hassle - this means that most of your mailing list traffic may get
screwed if you tweak sendmail like this. See the LI archives of a few
weeks ago re this.
