        I don't think we can be clearer than that. I have only one
addition. If I could use virtual folders, I'd use them in my main account
*only*. That's with one e-mail address. Virtual folders simply provide a
way to manage messages from a single location. These are messages which
*physically* reside in multiple locations. With respect to
'personalities', messages from separate accounts are *physically* placed
within the same location. They are downloaded and filtered to the same
location.

        Steve, don't you appreciate now the fundamental difference?

        Personalities *physically* bring messages from different accounts
together. Virtual folders don't *physically* bring messages together. The
virtual folder provides a list of messages from different locations so
that they may be easily managed together, just like what the search applet
does.
