Pegasus, again;-) Two ways: either built-in "Identities" capability (same 
account, but different settings, including, but not limited to, the transport

incoming mail from any number of POP servers specified into one and the 
same Inbox.

Thought for the day:
  One cannot make an omelette without breaking eggs -- but it is
  amazing how many eggs one can break without making a decent
  omelette.
